The issue is the object (self) is then a unicode one instead of my own
type.
I think you need to modify self in __new__
class Unicode(unicode):
Unicode.FORMAT = "utf8"
def __new__(self, text, format=None):
# text can be str or unicode
format = Unicode.FORMAT if format is None else format
if isinstance(text,str):
text = text.decode(format)
self = text.decode(format)
But I've only used __new__ once before so am no expert!
