R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

But in the case of BZ2File and ssl.SSLContext.load_cert_chain(), isn't it the 
case that they are trying to open the files?  So producing an early error about 
the decoding problem makes sense.  Are there any functions other than listdir 
where the decoded filenames are not necessarily immediately used to manipulate 
the files?
