For object serialization and some other purposes, Java encodes unicode strings with a modified version of utf-8: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8#Java http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/io/DataInput.html#modified-utf-8 It is used in Lucene index files among other places. It would be useful if Python had a codec for this, maybe called "UTF-8J" or something like that.
