Martin Panter added the comment:
It looks like surrogate-escaped bytes should be supported thanks to Issue 8390, although this is not so useful if you use the “pax” format (which always uses UTF-8 internally).
To generate a surrogate-escaped string, you can “decode” it with the following error handler:
>>> b"non-as\xA9ii".decode("ascii", "surrogateescape")
'non-as\udca9ii'
