Hi there
I use a custom model field (inherited from `TextField`) which simply
returns its value as an "enhanced" `unicode` object.
Unfortunately, this will raise UnicodeErrors as MySQLdb apparently fails
recognizing those values as `unicode`. The comparision isn't very clever
there ;)
MySQLdb has a `use_unicode` flag, but I don't know how to implement it in
Django and I think this is a serious bug.
I've prepared a whole test case right here: https://github.com/domibarton
/django-mysql-unicode-error
I hope this is enough for a "proper" bug description.
Cheers
Domi
