That will not work "perfectly" in all languages. I don't speak a language where
it doesn't work, so can't give a good example. But it doesn't make sense to
permute dchars that don't represent whole 'characters'.
Anyway, I'm just cautioning against this apparent workaround.
If you need to permute characters, it sounds like you can use dchars, but you
should additionally restrict yourself to dchar values that represent whole
characters. (Or to languages where that's true for all the characters you'll
use).
