Python doesn't really *guess* the encoding, it just reads the encoding from the 
locale.

What do you mean by "more correct"? How can Python knowns the right encoding 
better than the user? Python should not guess anything. If the environment is 
not correctly configured, it's not Python's fault. The user has to fix its 
environment.
