It unicode :

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15092437/python-encoding-utf-8

What I don't understand is why to get those without the u''

>>> print u"ma\u00eft"
maït

>>> print u"ma\u00eft".encode('utf8')
maït

>>> u"ma\u00eft".encode('utf8')
'ma\xc3\xaft'

Inside web2py it should be : 'ma\xc3\xaft'

So I am not sure where the string that you mention come from these two :

"ma\u00eft" for first vars and
"li\u00e9" for the second vars
