Hi Honza,
Glad you like the newforms package! Yes, the Postgres database backend
does not quote Unicode strings properly, so for the moment you'll have
to do what you're doing -- or use
form.clean()['form_field'].encode('utf8') to be a bit safer.
We should fix the Postgres database backend so that it encodes Unicode
strings into bytestrings before inserting them into a statement --
I'll put that on the to-do list.
