The UnicodeWarning is raised on some dict or set operations.
It is not very helpful, and sometimes annoying.
And it is somewhat inconsistent.


# ** warning not raised **

$ python2.7 -c "print u'd\xe9' in {'foo', 'bar'}"
False
$ python2.7 -c "print 'd\xe9' in {u'foo', u'bar'}"
False
$ python2.7 -c "print 'd\xc3\xa9' in {u'foo', u'd\xe9'}"
False


# ** warning raised **

$ python2.7 -c "print 'd\xe9' in {u'foo', u'd\xe9'}"
-c:1: UnicodeWarning: Unicode equal comparison failed to convert both arguments to Unicode - interpreting them as being unequal
False
$ python2.7 -c "print u'd\xe9' in {'foo', 'd\xe9'}"
-c:1: UnicodeWarning: Unicode equal comparison failed to convert both arguments to Unicode - interpreting them as being unequal
