When #2438, #2452 and #2453 are fixed, we should also add regression tests for authentication with non-ascii user names and passwords.
Unfortunately, I cannot even get the standard functional tests passing, probably because of changes in webob, weberrors and webtest. We need to get this fixed first.
For instance, test_authentication.test_forced_login is failing for me with
>> assert resp.location.startswith('http://localhost/login')
because resp.location is missing the http://localhost part.
I also get an error because the 'authkt' cookie has double quotes around "INVALID".
And after fixing all of these, I still am still getting strage errors such as
AssertionError: Content-Length is different from actual app_iter length (301!=260)
"Content-Length is different from actual app_iter length (%r!=%r)"
>> % (self.content_length, len('401 Unauthorized\nThis server could not verify that you are authorized to\r\naccess t
he document you requested. Either you supplied the\nwrong credentials (e.g., bad password), or your browser\r\ndoes n
ot understand how to supply the credentials required.\n\n\n\n'))
