[Zope-CMF] CMFSetup: non-ascii text

[Florent Guillaume]

In many places, CMFSetup exports and imports things like titles and  
descriptions. For instance, for the workflow states and transitions.
These fields can often, outside the USA, contain non-ascii strings.  
How do we export and reimport them ?

1. We can export by converting them to unicode, and the ZPT will  
render that as UTF-8. Which charset do we assume ? Anything better  
than "locale.getlocale()[1] or 'latin1'" ?

2. When importing, do we set the values (attributes) as unicode, or  
do we try to re-convert to the above charset...
