> path = default_storage.save('path/to/file', ContentFile(b'new content'))
Things would be bit easier, if `save()` would support strings/bytes
directly.
This way a developer needs to type and import less code:
{{{
path = default_storage.save('path/to/file', b'new content')
}}}
{{{
path = default_storage.save('path/to/file', 'new unicode string, encoded
automatically with utf-8')
}}}
Would you accept a patch to `Storage.save()`?
Background: I am writing a unittest which mocked away the storage calls to
save() will put the data into the mock.
Then I check if the data is the way I want it.
Now it gets complicated again: I need to access the data which is inside
`ContentFile` grrr.
This would be much easier if you could add strings/bytes to the `save()`
directly.
