Comment (by Adam Hooper):

 As the original reporter, I agree: calling it `force_str()` makes clear
 what it does.

 I still perceive Django to lack functionality. I originally filed this bug
 report because I assumed the Django framework supported JSON-encoded
 requests. This which led me to assume `force_text()` was a solution.

 But Django docs don't mention JSON-encoded requests. So I think it's
 consistent to close this bug and declare, "Django doesn't support JSON-
 encoded requests, unless you invest serious effort."
