Yes, this thing was doubted me too. I proceeded from the following considerations.
1. Often system id is used for file operations and in this case you need to use the file system encoding. Unfortunately Python 2 does not have 'surrogateescape' handler which would allow to encode arbitrary name and then restore and re-encode it for file operations.
2. Python 2 in contrary to Python 3 accepts bytes and they may not be valid UTF-8.
We have to choose between compatibility with Python 2 and Python 3. I chose the first, because it is more important for bugfix.
May be I am wrong. |
