Any chance the Python client could be modified to return strings in Unicode instead of UTF-8?
Yes it can.
Seems like a better fit for Python; for example, that's how Python's sqlite3 module behaves.
Do you know the behavior of other db API's? For example the native MySQL Python API? How big is the problem to do a manual conversion to unicode in your wrapper? The problem is that there isn't a real standard way of doing this, at least not defined by the python db API 2.0. - gijs
