04c345ae1f Use a different "unicoder" for db strings
It seems that running encoder.encode() on a latin1/latin9 string results
in, yes a bloody UnicodeDecodeError. Decode error on .encode()...
Really. This way the modification from non-unicode string to real
unicode appears to work better.

e915b0b62c Allow to bypass codec
If the system (display) locale is UTF-8, there is no need to encode to
either direction. In fact, running the .encode() routine appears to
mangle a valid UTF-8 string to a worse condition, effectively breaking
it.
