Maybe it should go to python-committers or some other public ML, so that other
devs can see and possibly fix the issue.

That sounds like a good idea to me.

Indeed I was confusing the two. I'm not actually even sure that the Unicode

way to configure them), and I was under the impression that '?' was sometimes
used during the decoding, but after a few tests it seems I was wrong.
