I think we always require to return unicode text within Zope 3, so there 
should never be a regular string in there.

I think this is a pure Zope 2 problem at this point, no? We certainly have way 
of handling UnicodeDecode errors. If you can show that this could potentially 
be a problem in Zope 3 as well, I would be for adding your UnicodeDecode 
resolver to the Zope 3 core.

BTW, weren't you in the room when we had the initial discussions pretty 
exactely 5 years ago? 

Yes, you were! :-)

Wow, Zope 3 is that old already.
