-------------------------+-------------------------
 I'm getting bitten by quite a lot of encoding issues in the wxGUI lately.
 I'm putting them here into one bug report as they all seem to have a
 similar pattern, but I can split up into separate bug reports if
 necessary.

 Here are two examples using freshly checked out trunk (but I can reproduce
 in grass70_release and in grass 7.0.2 - all with locale fr_BE.utf8):

 * v.to.rast/r.to.vect: just launching the module makes three error windows
 pop up with "'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 8: ordinal
 not in range(128)". After clicking through the three messages, I can
 launch the command. In the console I get:


 {{{

 self.notebookpanel.createCmd(ignoreErrors = True))))
 TypeError

 }}}

 * d.rgb: same error pop-up, just once, same error message in console (see
 below). However, when I choose a raster band I get the same pop-up window
 which is blocked from view by the layer list selector and so I cannot
 click on the 'OK' button. Any GUI programme I have open is then completely
 blocked, only terminal is accessible allowing me to kill the process. This
 basically makes d.rgb unusable for me in the wxGUI.

 I'll add others if I stumble upon them.
