I'm just now revising that chapter - and I would really like to have
both str(QString("\u4011\u4012")) and unicode(QString("\u4011\u4012"))
return the same Python Unicode object, that contains the right characters,
prefarably not an unicode-escape-encoded plain Python string.

Anyway, I have to finish this chapter by Friday or Saturday - so by then
I'll have to either write up the current trend of development, or the most
probably future implementation...
