Before we do this, another decision is required - which release of 2.6 is the minimum Django should support? There was a change which occurred with 2.6.5 (IIRC) to allow Unicode in kwargs keys (earlier versions would raise an exception). If we use "from __future__ import unicode_literals" to avoid using u() and b(), then a lot of Django code will be affected. Supporting 2.6- >2.6.4 will require cleaning kwargs, and to avoid this one would need to state that Django will only support 2.6.5 onwards. Of course, that might affect quite a lot of users with 2.6 system Pythons which are < 2.6.5 (e.g. on Ubuntu Jaunty the system Python is 2.6.2).
