Content 
Yes, it is intended behavior, and it is documented.  The default mode for NamedTemporaryFile (and TemporaryFile) is shown in the docs as "w+b".

I suppose that used to be more convenient in python2 where there was almost no distinction between binary and text on unix, but I think we are unlikely to change the default at this point.
