If someone wants to debug a Chinese program, he has in almost all cases obviously already installed the correct fonts and his machine can handle unicode. Maybe yours and mine not, but I doubt that we are going to debug a chinese program. I have debugged German programs (not python) with unicode characters in it for years and had no problem at all, because all customers and me have obviously German machines.
