If there is ever a Quixote 3, htmltext will be a subclass of
unicode.  We can't use a subclass now because it would screw Quixote
users that have applications that can't handle unicode.

I suppose we could have a global switch that turned on "htmltext as
a subclass of unicode", just like your qpy patch does.  In that
case, I think htmltext would be just like qpy except that I don't
think I would make "utf-8" the default encoding but use "ascii",
like the Python interpreter.
