STINNER Victor <vstin...@redhat.com> added the comment:

Is there really an use case which requires to set the permission of the file 
created by uu.decode()? It is already possible to call uu.decode() with an open 
file which has been created with the expected permission. Moreover, it's also 
possible to explicitly call chmod() *after* uu.decode().

I would suggest to deprecate the mode parameter in Python 3.7 and remove it 
from Python 3.8.
