Comment:
This isn't actually helpful for Buildbot. It's intended to allow strings
from arbitrary filesystems to be losslessly represented by a single type
(Unicode) in Python. However, the representation does *not* encode to
utf8 - it's *only* useful when passing such strings back to the filesystem
(where they must match byte-for-byte what came from the filesystem).
Buildbot never does this - it just takes strings and displays them in
status plugins.
