I'm sorry to disagree, you know that I'm a Unicode's nerd :-) We should 
have probably done that when adding Python 3 support, but it might be a bit 
late now. I'll see if I can find the time to work on something acceptable, 
allowing people to choose either policy without too much hassle and 
backwards incompatibility. Of course, anyone else could try it, too.

As for me, I think that's a behavior inherited from the past, where pure 
ASCII was king. It feels to me a bit ethnocentric (even if I know there 
are/were technical reasons for that).
