Comment (by Nick):
I can agree with moving it up a level. Although in that case maybe it is
worth moving it even further upstream to post:
https://github.com/django/django/blob/86de930f413e0ad902e11d78ac988e6743202ea6/django/test/client.py#L334
We already instantiate a dict here if there is no data - even if it is
empty - so we are effectively expecting a json body by default.
encode_data is not used anywhere else at this point and as it is mostly
concerned with encoding the data from a detected charset instead of
mutating it's type you could argue that it is also working as expected.
However I would argue that .post is not working as expected.
