Would that be a solution? Thomas, I solved the headaches with py2exe and encodings, again and again ... even documented some of these steps within the wiki. But encodings still give me new pain any day: storing filenames to databases, displaying filenames in windows-controls, sending database-extracts to excel or word ... time on time encodings and/or unicode errors pop up and cause me misery. So my cryout is for a solution for all encoding-problems like the python for-loop or list-comprehensions: elegant, simple, robust, flexible. Easy to use, easy to implement.
