Marc-Andre Lemburg added the comment: I wouldn't say this is a feature request.
What the code wanted to check is "if this is an iterable of two strings, convert these to a locale string". I have no idea why the doc string uses "iterable". IMO, a tuple of two strings would have been fine and make the test case a lot simpler - too late to fix, though. If the code works with Unicode strings, I think we can change the test to: if locale and not isinstance(locale, basestring): ... In Python 3, the function will only accept Unicode strings, so no need to fix things there. @tierlieb: Could you provide a patch with test for this ?
