Yep you are correct.
>>>
plistlib.readPlistFromBytes(plistlib.writePlistToBytes([[[[[[[[{'test': plistlib.Data(b'aaaaaa')}]]]]]]]]))
[[[[[[[[{'test': Data(b'aaaaaa')}]]]]]]]]
>>> plistlib.readPlistFromBytes(plistlib.writePlistToBytes([[[[[[[[[{'test': plistlib.Data(b'aaaaaa')}]]]]]]]]]))
[[[[[[[[[{'test': Data(b'')}]]]]]]]]]

I presume we want to raise a ValueError if the indentation is more than the maximal line length.
