Python works fine with non-ASCII characters -- if you declare the
encoding. I suppose you could say that needing to declare the encoding
is the problem, but then Python would have to figure out the encoding
automatically, and that way madness lies. (Although assuming UTF-8 when
it's not ASCII seems like a good start. Is that what Python 3 does?)

Someone (us? Mercurial people?) need to get an encoding line into those
source files.
