STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment:

Accept unicode string is not "pure", but I agree that it's convinient. Here is 
a patch:
 * base64.b(16|32|64)encode and b64.encodebytes accept unicode string
 * unicode is first encoded to utf-8 to get a byte string
 * Update the docstrings and the documentation
 * Fix tests
