    Handle unicode/str cast operators.

    A few of our objects defined __str__ and/or __unicode__ methods. This presents
    some complications for porting to python 3, since str has different meanings.

    Django provides a decorator, @python_2_unicode_compatible, whereby you define
    __str__ using python 3 semantics (i.e. it returns unicode), and when running
    with python 2, it will rename that to __unicode__ and make __str__ call that
    and encode to utf-8.
