This is an exception that I defined.   I have to pass it to third
party libraries.

As many libraries simply use str(e) to log, if I don't encode it in
__str___, they will fail.

But I am not quite certain if it's the right thing to do.   Shouldn't
every library expect to use unicode everywhere?

Shouldn't they use something like :

log(unicode(e))
