New submission from Serhiy Storchaka:
The proposed patch adds the "namereplace" error handler. This error handler is
almost same as the "backslashreplace" error handler, but use \N{...} escape
sequences if there is a character name in Unicode database. Result is a little
more human-readable (but less portable) than with "backslashreplace".
>>> '∀ x∈ℜ'.encode('ascii', 'namereplace')
b'\\N{FOR ALL} x\\N{ELEMENT OF}\\N{BLACK-LETTER CAPITAL R}'
The proposition was discussed and bikeshedded on Python-Ideas:
