Now I approve the PEP 538.
It's side-effect (just set LCCTYPE envvar) seems simple enough and moderate enough. Locale coercion will save people from unwanted mojibake (escaped string) and locale warning will navigate people to configure locale properly. And there are configure options and envvar option to disable it for people who want to continue to use C locale explicitly. Congrats, Nick!
Thank you! And thank you for your work in reviewing the PEP - I think the accepted version is a significant improvement over the more intrusive design I originally proposed downstream in Fedora :)
Regards, Nick.
