re: msg57041, I'm sorry if I gave the wrong impression about interacting 
with other programs. I started this feature request with some half-baked 
thinking, which I tried to revise in my second post.

Anyway I'm most interested right now in lobbying for a change to utf_8 to 
accept input with an _optional_ BOM-signature so that the input part would 
behave just like utf_8_sig, where the BOM-sig is already optional (on 
input).

In the process of trying to come up with a test and patch for this, I 
discovered a bug in utf_8_sig (issue #1444 http://bugs.python.org/
issue1444).

After there is some action on that I will return here to continue with 
utf_8, which I have convinced myself (anyways) is a reasonable and safe 
revision.
