Pleeeeeeeease, Marc, read my comments. You never consider technical problems, you just propose to ensure that "Python just works", without answering to my technical questions. I already explained 2 or 3 times that sys.setfilesystemencoding() was completly buggy and not usable in pratical. You proposed PYTHONFSENCODING and I implemented it. But then I explained in an email to python-dev and in this issue, that this environment variable introduced many problems.

I don't see how sys.setfilesystemencoding() would solve this issue, it's out of scope.
