That's actually similar to what I was using in Kid already.
The problem is that there are some Exceptions which cannot be
instantiated with a single string argument, such as UnicodeDeocdeError.
Please try the above with "unicode('\xe4')" instead of the dots.
Instead of re-raising the UnicodeDecodeError, you will get a TypeError
because of this problem.
