You're right, Scott. Safari returns theURL as Unicode text, and the coercion to text/string, while returning a class of string, actually results in international/styled text. In other words, the text still retains some encoding. Since there are several ways to strip this from the text, here's a selection:

------------------

set {text:keyName} to theURL as text

------------------

set keyName to theURL as string as record as list as string

------------------

set keyName to (theURL as string as record)'s «class ktxt»

------------------

This is only partially true, as emphasized in the third note in Satimage-software's page about Unicode and AppleScript:
