Note that this assumption seems optimistic to me. I started talking to Graham Dumpleton, author of modwsgi a couple years back because modwsgi and paste do decoding of bytes to unicode at different layers which caused problems for application level code that should otherwise run fine when being served by modwsgi or paste httpserver. That was the beginning of Graham starting to talk about what the wsgi spec really should look like under python3 instead of the broken way that the appendix to the current wsgi spec states.

Ok, but the reason would be that the WSGI spec is broken. Not Python 3 itself.
