Comment (by jinmei):

 What's the goal of this ticket?  Remove unnecessary calls to
 `MessageRenderer.to_wire` from xfrout?  Remove such calls throughout
 the source code?  Is it Python or C++ or both (the :: notation seems
 to indicate C++, but #1357 is for xfrout, which is written in Python)?

 BTW, if it's for python, I've been thinking we might provide an
 enhancement to `Message.to_wire()` so it can use an internal
 `MessageRenderer` and directly returns a byte sequence.  Then the code
 will be much more simplified like this:

 {{{#!python
     s.send(msg.to_wire(compress_mode=CASE_SENSITIVE,
                        truncation_limit=65535,
                        tsig_ctx=if_using_tsig))
 }}}
