title: How to convert unicode escape sequence URL to python unicode?
body: <p>what is the right way to do it if the URL has some unicode chars in it, and is escaped in the client side using javascript ( escape(text) )? For example, if my url is: domain.com/?text=%u05D0%u05D9%u05DA%20%u05DE%u05DE%u05D9%u05E8%u05D9%u05DD%20%u05D0%u05EA%20%u05D4%u05D8%u05E7%u05E1%u05D8%20%u05D4%u05D6%u05D4</p>
  
  <p>I tried:
  text = urllib.unquote(request.GET.get('text'))
  but I got the exact same string back (%u05D0%u05D9%u05DA%20%u05DE ... )</p>
