Comment:
I'm not sure what the bug is here.
Models have a default {{{__str__}}} method that calls the
{{{__unicode__}}} method, if it exists, and encodes the output correctly
(something your temporary fix does not do -- it will break if the result
of {{{__unicode__}}} is non-ASCII). So there shouldn't be any problem at
all here.
Are you seeing an actual error? If so, what are the steps to replicate it?
Calling str() on a model instance should be quite safe and shouldn be
behaving correctly and predictably. We test this in the test suite
already.
