689	web documents should be constructed out of unicode strings	kpreid		"The Tahoe WUI pages are generated out of Python 'str', rather than 'unicode' objects. This is error-prone and potentially tedious, as anything which embeds potentially non-ASCII text in the page must explicitly specify the encoding at that point; for example, render_row in directory.py does.

Instead, the page content should be constructed out of Unicode strings, and only one point should know what the encoding is, and also be responsible for reporting that encoding in the Content-Type of the response.

Whether this is practical depends on the design of Nevow, about which I know nothing."	enhancement	new	minor	eventually	code-frontend-web	1.4.1		unicode	kpreid
