I don't understand why you see no difference in the stacktrace, but a
difference with pdb in the end. Doesn't one instance show that the input is
a string and the other that its unicode?
Do you see this until you extract it first from the request object?

You are not having one form saying fieldname:string and the other just
fieldname?
