[issue10590] Parameter type error for xml.sax.parseString(string, ...)

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

Indeed, xml.dom.minidom.parseString() and xml.etree.ElementTree.fromstring() accepts both bytes and strings, xml.dom.minidom.parse(), xml.etree.ElementTree.parse() and even xml.sax.parse() accepts both byte and text streams. Only xml.sax.parseString() rejects strings in contrast to its name. This looks as 2 to 3 porting bug.
