You can't win that, because Unicode is the only encoding that attempts to guarantee even the possibility of round-tripping. Rubbish -- I can do print [ord(c) for c in myunicodestring] and get perfect round-trippability if I want.

I think my_unicode_string.encode('raw-unicode-escape) is equivalent.
