I think that this kind of programming detail should be handled
internally (even if necessary by switching automatically from UTF-8 to
UTF-16 depending upon the language).

I'm using Haskell so that I can write high level code. In my view I
should not have to care if the people using my application write in
Farsi, Quechua or Tamil.
