One use case (and the only one I'm aware of) is to pass keyword
parameters. Python 2 insists that they are str (and doesn't accept
unicode), Python 3 insists that they are str (and doesn't accept bytes).

This is fairly uncommon as a problem, though, and is also solved in
Python 2.6, which does accept Unicode strings as keyword parameter
names.
