I suggest to:
1) keep the current behavior for non-BMP chars (i.e. print them normally);
2) change isprintable to consider the Zx categories printable (this will
affect repr() too);
3) change displayhook (*NOT* sys.stdout.encoding) to use backslashreplace
when the string contains chars that are not encodable with sys.stdout.encoding
*.
* note that this will affect only the objects that are converted with repr() in
the interpreter e.g. ">>> x = 'foo'; x" and *NOT* ">>> x = 'foo'; print(x)".
Since the first behavior exists *only* in the interactive interpreter it won't
be inconsistent with normal programs ("x = 'foo'; x" in a program doesn't
display anything).
