Description
When I use LANGUAGE_CODE = 'cs'
and have some errors in newforms, the template rendering fails because the errors are unicode strings, and the rest of the system fails to handle that correctly (so trying {{ form.field.errors|join:", " }} fails horribly).
I attached a patch that takes care of the problem by encoding all the errors using settings.DEFAULT_CHARSET
in ValidationError
.
All tests pass

This helped me, should this be checked in or is there something i'm missing here?

Added patch for "funky" characters, decodes the utf8, then re-encodes as unicode.
Changing triage stage to design decision needed - Do we want this, or is there some cleaner and simpler way how to make newforms' errors work for "funky" characters?
