Comment(by olly):

 It's arguably a bug that get_description() doesn't always return valid
 UTF-8, so we could fix that in the C++ layer instead.  The main case I can
 think of is Query objects - particularly OP_VALUE_RANGE, but even terms
 can be arbitrary byte sequences.  We could instead return C-style
 \-escaped strings for such cases, which would be more readable too.
