Comment (by chrisz):
Thanks, kikidonk, this is much clearer now.
I can reproduce the issue in comment:13 (you forgot to mention that you
also need to login as user "ß", and it happens only with certain browsers
such as MSIE, while Firefox does not seem to cause problem because it
always urlencodes the url).
Btw, instead of 'ß'.decode('utf-8') you can also write u'ß' if your code
is written in utf-8. And you should point to the current code at
http://trac.turbogears.org/browser/branches/1.0 instead of the very old
http://trac.turbogears.org/browser/tags/1.0b1/.
I can also confirm the issue in comment:14. TurboGears should really
convert the base64-user-pass string to unicode in decode_basic_credentials
before splitting it with ':' and returning it. Unfortunately, RFC2617 does
not specify any charset here and some googling shows that there is
disaccord whether latin-1 or utf-8 is to be used. Probably we should try
to decode as utf-8 first, and if that fails, decode as latin-1.
These kind of problems are why I really appreciate the changes made in
Python 3.0...
