+1 from me - with this PEP in place getting the old repr() behaviour 
back is fairly straightforward (as shown in the PEP), but it's hard to 
get the unicode-friendly repr() behaviour any other way (because the 
current repr() loses too much information, as demonstrated fairly 
thoroughly in the python-dev thread that inspired the PEP).

Cheers,
Nick.
