Thank you, Neil!

For several days I have been rummaging through my Quixote application's code
changing it to use Unicode instead of strings for all text production (I do
not use PTL), then encoding it as utf-8 and calling set_content_type() just
before it is handed over to request.response.  Part of  the app is already
running in Babelfish-flavored Chinese.  I was expecting to start running into
places (esp. forms) where Quixote would have to be hacked or bypassed, but
now I will immediately start using qx 2.0.
