I prefer this option, actually. 'true' asByteArray is bogus to begin with. What encoding are those bytes? ASCII? Latin-1? UTF8? Do the bytes that are produced depend on the internal encoding of String? Or maybe the encoding of the changes file. Sure, all these questions have answers, but they are not obvious from the source code. At least #[116 114 117 101] is unambiguous.
