I've tested this patch on live and netinst installations and nothing seemed to be broken by it.
After actually paying attention I realized these are pyparted objects and was able to reproduce with TC6 live -- pyparted is returning unicode objects and it really shouldn't. This is caused by a py3.x set of patches, so I'm NAK for these patches. We need to fix this in pyparted, there's no reason for it to be returning unicode objects. At the most it should utf-8 encode anything and return a string object.
Thanks for looking at this, I didn't realize we can fix this on the right side. Returning utf-8-encoded strings should be okay. I believe there could be non-ascii characters in labels, for example.
