I've started using a list:string field on the auth_user model.

I'm running web2py on GAE with the datastore.


I noticed web2py's admin tool started crashing on this page 
appadmin/select/db?query=db.auth_user.id>0


looking at the console I found:


/gluon/dal.py", line 10035, in <genexpr>

    return ', '.join(str(y) for y in x or [])

UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe1' in position 1: 
ordinal not in range(128)

It seems web2py is not properly handling the datastore string list property. 

I fixed the problem by adding .encoding("utf8") to the dal.py function below:

def list_represent(x, r=None):
    #return ', '.join(str(y) for y in x or [])
    return ', '.join(str(y.encode("utf8")) for y in x or [])


Has anybody else experienced the same error?


tks
