Right, for WSGI 1.1 on Python 3.x, 8859-1 strings is the plan. Other, more
ideologically pure options can be discussed for an incompatible revision of
WSGI (e.g. the hypothetical 2.0).
BTW: I hope to have a first draft of the changes by Monday. (But don't beat up
on me if it's delayed; I am working on it.)
