I'm not sure that that will help either of my issues.  The codecs.open() 
function is what I use to be able to use utf-8 encoded translation files.  In 
the second example, is the new object 's' an unadulterated version of 
maindata.xml?  If so, I may still be able to manipulate it, to decode it.  
I'll need to update from svn and test it later today.

In terms of changing to a new 'root' directory in the theme, if you're using 
an skz file, are all files relative to the .skz file?
