Unicode safe "convertTmplPathToModuleName"

Hi!

After an upgrade from *Cheetah 2.4.0* to *Cheetah 2.4.2.1*, I had a 
problem with the module "convertTmplPathToModuleName".

Traceback BEGIN

I commited a unicode-string as *file*-parameter onto 
´´Cheetah.Template``. This was no problem with *Cheetah 2.4.0*.

In my opinion, Cherrypy should be unicode-safe. So maybe you can do 
something with my suggestion for a new *convertTmplPathToModuleName*-module.


CODE BEGIN
=====================================================================
#!/usr/bin/env python
# coding: utf-8

import os.path
import string


def _get_transchars():
     try:
         chars = string.ascii_letters + string.digits
     except AttributeError:
         chars = string.letters + string.digits
     letterlist = ['_'] * 256
     for char in chars:
         letterlist[ord(char)] = char
     return ''.join(letterlist)

_transchars = _get_transchars()
_transchars_unicode = unicode(_transchars)


def convertTmplPathToModuleName(
     tmplPath, _pathNameTransChars=None, splitdrive=os.path.splitdrive
):
     if _pathNameTransChars is None:
         if isinstance(tmplPath, unicode):
             _pathNameTransChars = _transchars_unicode
         else:
             _pathNameTransChars = _transchars
     return splitdrive(tmplPath)[1].translate(_pathNameTransChars)

CODE END


Kind regards,
