This has been discussed ad-nausium on web-sig over a period of years. I'd like to reiterate that it is only even a potential issue for the PATH_INFO/SCRIPT_NAME keys. Those two keys are required to have been urldecoded already, into byte-data in some encoding. For all the other keys (including the ones from os.environ), they are either *properly* decoded in 8859-1 or are just ascii (possibly still urlencoded, so the app needs to urldecode and decode into a string with the correct encoding).
