I think you need to use a raw unicode string, ur

Nope.  The 'r' prefix does not disable unicode escapes.

unicodedata.name(ur'\u2122')
'TRADE MARK SIGN'

If if did, the string above would have 6 chars instead of 1 and the above would not work.

That seems to work in 2.x but not 3.x.

'u' was restored in 3.3 as a do-nothing prefix, but the combination 'ur' was not.
