Thank you Terry for your review. Here is updated patch fith fixed wording as 
you suggested. Hope it will be available to review on Rietveld.

The original purpose of this patch was to help fixing some IDLE "crashes". 
Percolator is registered in text widgets for highlighting pasted text. If you 
paste invalid string containing a lone surrogate on Windows (clipboard uses 
UTF-8), it first converted by Tcl to char*, and then Tkinter should convert it 
to Python string for passing to registered Python function, but fails. Since 
the information is lost during conversion in Tcl, we can't use say 
"surrogatepass" error handler fo representing non-well-formed data. With this 
patch we can decode just from Tcl unicode string.
