Description
In one of my projects, I'm testing some readable content of a PDF file with assertContains. Unfortunately, this is no longer possible in Django 1.5 (and I'm probably partially accountable for that!), as assertContains always try to decode the response content. I'd suggest to revert this regression.

Unfortunately, there is still an issue when the assertContains text parameter itself is made up of non-ascii binary content. I'll upload a complementary patch.

The patch looks good.
This does indeed appear to be a regression (the same test works fine in django 1.4).
I'm marking this as RFC.
