New submission from Thomas Güttler:

The current docs for Python2, don't explain how to handle unicode:

https://docs.python.org/2/library/urllib.html#urllib.urlencode

It seems to be a common problem. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6480723/urllib-urlencode-doesnt-like-unicode-values-how-about-this-workaround

It would be nice to document the most pythonic way to handle unicode in urllib.urlencode()
