This sounds like a strong prospect for how to get things working (I
didn't realize open would accept a bytes argument for the filename),
but I'm also interested in whether reading filenames from stdin and
subsequently opening them is supposed to "just work" given a suitable
encoding - like with Java which also uses unicode strings. In Java,
I'm told that ISO-8859-1 is supposed to "guarantee a roundtrip
conversion".
