30294	HttpResponse doesn't handle memoryview objects	Roger Hunwicks	Sage Abdullah	"I am trying to write a `BinaryField` retrieved from the database into a `HttpResponse`. When the database is Sqlite this works correctly, but Postgresql returns the contents of the field as a `memoryview` object and it seems like current Django doesn't like this combination:

{{{
#!python

from django.http import HttpResponse                                                                     

# String content
response = HttpResponse(""My Content"")                                                                            
response.content                                                                                                 

# Out: b'My Content'
# This is correct

# Bytes content
response = HttpResponse(b""My Content"")                                                                           
response.content                                                                                                 

# Out: b'My Content'
# This is also correct

# memoryview content
response = HttpResponse(memoryview(b""My Content""))                                                               
response.content

# Out: b'<memory at 0x7fcc47ab2648>'
# This is not correct, I am expecting b'My Content'
