Well, not quite. In general you need to pass raw strings:
u = unicode(r'....\u1234...\...\...','raw-unicode-escaped')
^
u = ur(r'...\u4545...\...\...')
^
else Python will replace all the other backslash sequences. This is a
crucial distinction at times; e.g., else \b in a Unicode regexp will expand
into a backspace character before the regexp processor ever sees it (\b is
supposed to be a word boundary assertion).
