I always find it hilarious how people start debates about UTF-8 vs UTF-16 in string APIs. Let us not forget that in an ideal world, the QString API wouldn't expose the underlying encoding *at all*, and it would be an implementation detail unknown to users.
See Swift's String class for example: https://developer.apple.com/swift/blog/?id=30 If you're thinking in terms of code units instead of in terms of grapheme clusters, you don't truly understand Unicode. And also end up with historical radioactive waste like UTF-16.
