2.7 is in bug fix only mode, and even that ends at the end of this year. This 
seems more like a feature request than an actual bug; it works, but not great 
with Unicode in some cases (which describes large parts of Python 2).

It does look like Python 3.7 at least is using CreateProcessW already ( 
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3.7/Modules/_winapi.c#L1062 ), going 
along with the generally more Unicode-friendly vibe there.

The subprocess32 module on PyPI performed backports from Py3's subprocess to 
Py2 for POSIX systems; perhaps talk to the author (gregory.p.smith, whom I have 
nosied) about backporting similar improvements for the Windows side of the 
aisle?
