Setting a todo attribute on a test method or TestCase or somesuch to anything other than a str instance (for example, a unicode instance) results in trial silently ignoring the attribute. It would be nice if it emitted a warning or raised an exception or otherwise complained about it.

Research direction
Start in Twisted's trial implementation by locating how todo attributes are read from test methods and TestCase instances. Reproduce the case with a non-str value such as unicode, then add coverage and ensure trial warns or raises instead of silently ignoring the invalid attribute.
