It's not documented in that detail; if people think it should be documented more thoroughly, that should be done (contributions are welcome). Changing the import machinery to deal with Unicode strings differently cannot be done for Python 2.5, though: it cannot be done for 2.5.0 as the release candidate has already been published, and there is no acceptable patch available at this moment. It cannot be added to 2.5.x as it may reasonably break existing applications.
