Oh, no. That's a highly unrecommended solution, though.
setdefaultencoding() is not even meant to be in Python and there are
assumptions that the default encoding won't be changed. Please don't do
it (and I know that "Dive into Python" suggests this, but that's a bug
-- there are lots of threads on python-dev recommending against it).
