There was a problem hiding this comment.
Changing the semantics of the longstanding download_as_string method seems like a problematic break, here. If we leave download_as_string as a backward-compatibility shim for download_as_bytes, and add the new implementation as download_as_text, we avoid breaking user code and make the new semantics clearer / less ambiguous.
