Zope 2.7 throws a BadPickleGet, 12 exception, Zope 2.8 throws BadPickleGet, 13 and Zope 2.9 raises the described UnicodeDecodeError. I don't expect that the import functionality works for even more complex objects. So I consider the whole functionality as totally broken. The generated XML might be useful to perform any processing outside Zope but using it for re-importing it into another Zope systems definitely does _not_ work. So if the functionality should remain in Zope then it should be fixed for Zope 2.10 lately.
Here is a quick patch for this problem (against 2.9.1). There were two different problems: - the id attributes were not generated, because the conditional was reverse. - unlike xmllib, expat always returns Unicode data, so simply concatenating binary values generates Unicode objects with non-ascii characters. For the latter problem, I'm not sure if my patch is enough. But this patch works with a simple dtml export/import.
