That's a great point. I've made a bug card for it here:

Thanks for reporting this.

This also took out my job handlers (exception below). So the introduction
of non-ascii characters into the table (via the job stdout/stderr capture)
can make a galaxy instance pretty useless.
I was able to find the offending records using "SELECT count(*) FROM job
WHERE stderr similar to '%\x8b%';
I'm getting an exception when trying to look at the admin job management
screen. It looks like SQLAlchemy doesn't like non-ascii characters. Any
ideas about what to do?
