I am not really interested in participating. Besides some possible
simple cleanup, CharChunk is actually too simple rather than too complex
(ByteChunk is just fine, and doesn't need additional features): to
improve, it would need to get mark capabilities and (unfortunately) get
a readLine (it's even more problematic to implement it outside the
class). I am pretty sure using the NIO buffers will be proposed for some
reason, which are horrible to use as far as I am concerned.

There's no way this sort of work could be good for these branches.
