The error message and all its parameters must be string.
So convert error code to string in order to accomplish it.

How about the follow change?
It can avoid call str() before we raise KimchiException Everywhere.
Also I think it is not good to other developers to call str explicitly Everywhere.

What about always convert to string before to unicode?

if not isinstance(value, unicode):
   args[key] = unicode(str(value), 'utf-8')

That way we guarantee everything will be unicode in the end.
