Since I get only the digest late in the evening, someone else may have
replied to this - if so, I apologize.
UTF-8 encodes every character in the Unicode standards (so far). Code
points from 0-x'7f'are coded as-is. Code points from x'80'-x'7ff' are
encoded in two bytes, code points from x'800' to x'ffff' require 3
bytes, and code points from x'10000' to x'1ffff' (the current standard
limit) require 4 bytes.
So, there is no character in the Unicode repertoire missing from UTF-8.
