Hi,
I am writing a web application which retrieves data through SQLAlchemy. 
Character-based data in this database is encoded as latin1.

My Web-framework (Zope3) expects strings in the unicode format and throws  
errors like this:

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xfc in position 1: 
ordinal not in range(128)

I could of course convert data manually from latin1->unicode, however, this 
will be quite some work, moreover my database will be converted to unicode 
some day.

A nice solution would be if SQLAlchemy could automatically do this conversion 
(in both directions) - this would solve all my problems. Is this possible?

Best Regards,
Hermann
