unicode crash in deluge-console

[Pat]

I 'fixed' (I think) a bug in deluge-console. Please how may I submit it for approval / checkin? Here is the stacktrace:

16:58:57.792 [ERROR   ][deluge.ui.console.modes.basemode                      :1207] 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf9' in position 15: ordinal not in range(128)
Traceback (most recent call last):

UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf9' in position 15: ordinal not in range(128)

Here is my proposed fix:

~/deluge $ git diff deluge/ui/console/modes/basemode.py
diff --git a/deluge/ui/console/modes/basemode.py b/deluge/ui/console/modes/basemode.py

         try:
