Yes.  A Roundup-level export/import works to move between Python 2 and 
Python 3 with MySQL, because I made the export/import format compatible 
between the two (see repr_export and eval_import in 
roundup.anypy.strings).  But while there might be some way to do a 
MySQL-level export/import that keeps the byte sequences while changing 
them to be treated as UTF-8 rather than latin1 by MySQL, I don't know what 
that way is.
