Hi all, 

since utf8 encoding is everywhere by now, and since switching the useflag 
unicode off without taking precautions is a way to hose your installation, I 
would propose to medium-term get rid of this flag.

Suggestion:

1) use.force unicode now/soon in the default profiles

2) step by step, modify ebuilds to enable the functionality unconditionally 
(and if necessary fix depstrings)

3) at some point the flag is gone

Opinions?

Cheers, 
Andreas
