No reason why we should tied ourselves to Unicode as a requirement. Unicode is
not THE character set, altho I respect the amount of work they have done.
Speaking for my own, and solely for my own, I have an interest to see what
difficulties and whether a ISO2022-X + ISO8859-X integrated solution (like how
MULE has done) is viable. I would like to work on this if I have the time...or
at least see someone else attempt to do it.
