The right thing to do is IRIs. For 2.5, should we at least detect that it's unicode and raise a useful error? That can certainly be done, sure. Martin

That would be great.

And I agree that updating urllib.quote for unicode should be part of a grand plan that updates all of urllib[2] and introduces an irilib / urischemes / uriparse module in 2.6 as Martin and John J Lee suggested. =)

cheers, stefan
