Observed behavior

User reports of CSV file export failing prompted me to add a test for this in a Windows environment in #7899.

When Unicode text should be inserted into the exported CSV, such as a Unicode username or full_name, then an error occurs on windows.

Error trying to write csv file: 'charmap' codec can't encode characters in position 29-35: character maps to <undefined>

Expected behavior

CSV Export should work on all platforms.

This is fixed by this commit: c088d08

User-facing consequences

Windows users are unable to export CSV files.
