The following code in py console would return a python string object,
instead of the expected bytes one.
```python
value = b"Hello World"
key = "a"
C.object[key] = value
C.object[key]
>>> b"Hello World"
C.object.path_resolve('["%s"]' % key)
>>> "Hello World"
```
Now it will return a byte object as it should.
