Hmm. Let me rephrase that. *Internally* it doesn't support bytes payloads, it "encodes" bytes payloads as surrogateescaped ascii, as you have oserved. Which is why this is on the borderline, and could possibly be considered a bug fix, because from an external point of view it does support parsing and generating 8bit payloads.
I need to give it some thought, and perhaps others will weigh in with opinions.
