I agree that adding a new module is very bad idea. I think that the reviving the encoding parameter is a lest wrong way. json.dumps() should return bytes when the encoding argument is specifiead and str otherwise. json.dump() should write binary data when the encoding argument is specifiead and a text otherwise. This is not perfect design, but it has precendences in XML modules.
