Is it practical for you to encode it yourself to utf8?
Possible a better solution, long-term: define a function, call it ustr, either
in html.py or in some utility file that does:
def ustr(s):
if isinstance(s, str):
return s
if isinstance(s, unicode):
return s.encode('utf8')
return str(s)
I think it'd be a reasonable replacement for most (not all) of html.py's str()
invocations.
