Yep. And then you may want to consider "from __future__ import
unicode_literals", which will make string literals represent Unicode
strings rather than byte strings. Basically the same as you're saying,
only without the explicit u prefixes.

This will also make your Py2 code behave more like the way your Py3
code does (as bare string literals are always Unicode strings in Py3).
