--- Comment #6 from Martin Sandsmark <martin.sandsm...@kde.org> ---
yeah, I tried it myself earlier (using the system wcwidth), but it didn't go
further than a discussion on IRC. I don't remember the exact reason I abandoned
it, probably because wcwidth() varies so much between systems. what could work
would be to fall back to konsole_wcwidth on platforms where it is completely
broken, but that needs extensive testing.

I also started on the same as you, but for upstream Qt, but I'm not sure if I
have the code anymore. basically I wanted to add a system-independent wcwidth
to qlocale, as well as update to unicode 10 in Qt.

for reference, the Qt code for parsing the tables is here:
