Not for this reason, but because it must be implemented at higher abstraction level first to be considered. Since I have no much interest in multibyte characters, it is not mine task in general, but others. > The proposal breaks multibyte support and I do not believe it is acceptable Again, I see no way how it can break nonexisten support.
