     400If we insert a unicode value it will be converted to a string. This is done
     401because the handlers (WSGI/mod_python) expect binary data and will break on
     402non-ascii unicode.
     403
     404>>> r['value'] = u't\xebst value'
     405>>> type(r['value'])
     406<type 'str'>
     407
     408It uses the charset of the response for encoding it. By default it is utf-8.
     409
     410>>> type(r['value'].decode('utf8'))
     411<type 'unicode'>
     412
     413The response also converts unicode keys to strings.
     414
     415>>> r[u't\xebst'] = 'testing key'
     416>>> type(list(sorted(r.items()))[1][0])
     417<type 'str'>
     418
     419This only happens when you call items since the implementation uses a system
     420where the original key is used for normal dict lookups.
     421
     422>>> u't\xebst' in r
     423True
