Oh joy. Kodi media server is having unicode issues and this won't help. I'm
trying to see how bad it is.
The main use for case transformations is for internal keyword
lookup/monocasing. Settings, filenames on moncased filesystems, etc. are
caseless. On the main things work okay until you hit a language, such as
Turkish, that does not obey the usual rules. So, ToLower('I') does not map to
'i'. There are ways to work around this, but it depends upon the robustness of
the unicode implementation.
I've spent the past several days looking into C++ behavior. It seemed to be
similarly broken until I discovered that writing to both cout and wcout tends
to break things, including unicode encoding.
It will take a few days to investigate further. Thanks for the info.
