Comment (by eblot):
It seems ok, although it makes me think about a related question:[[BR]]
How do the configuration code cope with unicode values (for characters not
in ASCII set)?
It seems the !ConfigParser does not make any character set translation at
all. So when we read UTF-8 from the ini file, the configuration parser
uses utf-8 values. What about if we place unicode characters in the
configuration parser and call the `save()` method? It seems that neither
the original parser method or the patch method can cope with Unicode. Am I
wrong?
I don't see where unicode-to-utf8 translation is made for the
configuration file.
BTW: it there any reason why the 'top level' scripts in `/scripts`
directory are kept encoded using `iso-8859-1` rather than `utf-8` as the
rest of the code? ex:
{{{
file -i scripts/trac-admin
scripts/trac-admin: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
}}}
