New submission from Luca Fabbri <lucafbb at gmail.com>:
Using the unicodedata.decomposition function on characters like \u201c and \u201d I didn't get back the classic quote character (").
This is a very common error when text is taken from Microsoft Word (where in italian language a couple of quoting character in a sentence like "foo" is automatically changed to “foo”).
