Paul Moore added the comment:

Hmm, OK. So code that currently needs to access QWORD values and decodes the 
bytes returned would be broken by this change. Equally it is possible (albeit 
not ideal) to get the data out with the current behaviour.

I can't judge how likely it is that anyone has written code like this - 
personally, I'd prefer not to take the risk. But if someone else feels I'm 
being over-cautious, that's fine.
