    77But if "plain-text … bytes" actually means "a text password in the app's choice of encoding," then this is/was a breaking change. (And that's unclear to me: the password hashers have bounced back and forth between `force_bytes()` and `encode()` over time: see #36226 and #27795. During the `force_bytes()` periods, I think any encoding would have been acceptable so long as it was consistently applied.)

     9Oh, and if "plain-text" actually means ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plaintext plaintext]'' (as opposed to ''ciphertext'', so has nothing to do with human-readable "text"), then it's probably reasonable to expect arbitrary byte sequences to be supported.
