Perhaps it would be nice if the user field was unicode. <shrug> The
definition of this interface predates unicode in Python. This is
unlikely to change.

A more likely change is to drop these fields altogether and keep just
the extension data, which allows any picklable data.

I suggest changing zope.app.publication to store the user as extension
data.

BTW, while talking about transaction meta data, it would be nice if
zope.app.publication also recorded the host name and pid. :)
