Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Please don't deprecate the encoding parameter in str. It has a use case. str constructor works with any bytes-like objects, even with these that don't have the decode method. It raises more appropriate TypeError instead of AttributeError, so often you don't need to wrap an error.
