Core changes by MO:

    - WebSafe and the other optional filters in Filters.py now use
      RawOrEncodedUnicode instead of Filter as a base class.  This allows them
      to work with Unicode values containing non-ASCII characters.
          User-written custom filters should inherit from
      RawOrEncodedUnicode and call the superclass .filter() instead of str().
      str() as of Python 2.4.2 still converts Unicode to string using
      ASCII codec, which raises UnicodeEncodeError if it contains non-ASCII
      characters.
