I think it will have the same problem. afaict, FileStorage.format.TxnHeader 
uses str() to convert all these parameters to a plain string, and will 
therefore behaves the same way as DirectoryStorage. It will raise the same 
UnicodeError exception if given a unicode string containing anything other 
than ascii (7bit) values.

but ITransaction requires that the 'user' and 'description' attributes are 
type str.
