Even if we have fully Unicode compliant sys.stdout and sys.stderr, setting the code page to CP_UTF8 (65001) does still improve Unicode support in some cases: - if the output (stdout and/or stderr) is redirected - if you encode Unicode to the console code page to use directly sys.stdout.buffer and sys.stderr.buffer

I did more tests on the Windows console, focused on output, see:
http://bugs.python.org/issue1602#msg145898
I was wrong, it *is* useful to change the code page to 65001. Even if we have fully Unicode compliant sys.stdout and sys.stderr, setting the code page to CP_UTF8 (65001) does still improve Unicode support in some cases:
 - if the output (stdout and/or stderr) is redirected
 - if you encode Unicode to the console code page to use directly sys.stdout.buffer and sys.stderr.buffer
