Hello, especially someone having interest in multibyte character,

With the ICU library, search results and monitor pane have a capability to
display of multibyte character from LimeWire. So far, I've seen Japanese
almost all, sometimes Korean (but unintelligible sequence of characters),
hardly Chinese. I must express my gratitude to Stephane implement this faculty.

Well, my question might towards two direction. One thing is for non-multibyte
user; How would you think these multibyte characer drifting on the Gnet,
and what your workarounds are? It has been a simple curiosity.

Seconds' for implementer especially; First of all, it's not necessarily
the multibyte issue will be tell from now on. Well then, as far as Japanese
is concerned, I've come across the three situation:

* displayed normally, indeed normally.

* displayed on the grade can be read, however (semi)voiced consonant marks
  had replaced by underscore or question mark.

* displayed only ASCII, Japanese is unreadable.

Note that I'm excluding files without SHA1 by client side, so even if the
last case, it has a certain substance. I've been thinking these differences
are due to the encoding, and guessing the first is UTF-8 was converted from
UTF-32 validly, the second is UTF-8 was EUC originally, and the third is
ShiftJIS presented by Microsoft(R). If it was coused by LimeWire's server side,
not within a ICU's converter, it might be nothing to do. However if not,
is there any workaround?

PS. If you want there is a screenshot of above mentioned, furthermore,
    are eager to know the meaning of original filename at any cost,
    I'll ahem, translate it humbly :-)
