I'm just triaging bugs for PyXDG. It seems that getName() returns a unicode string suitable for the current locale. I'd consider that the expected behaviour. I believe modern GUI toolkits work with unicode (I'm familiar with Qt, which certainly does).
Do you think that it should return an 8-bit string in a locale-dependent encoding? That seems a step backwards to me, but I'd be interested to hear your thoughts if that is your position. Otherwise, I think we can close this issue.
