Well, I'll rather wait for someone to clearly shows the purpose of that. As I said in the above issue, modern programs tend to use UTF-8 systematically, unless they are on an OS with a precise notion of wider unicodes (like Windows), in which case Python's own unicode representation matches already and can be used directly in "wchar_t*".
