Related to this question is a question about errors. How to inform the user, if an error occurred in the decoding with detected encoding? Leave UnicodeDecodeError or convert it to ValueError? If there is a syntax error in JSON -- exception will refer to the position in the decoded string, we should to translate it to the position in the original binary string?
