The idea was that one day it would contain utf8 versions of sysutils
routines too + extra functions which are alternatives to rtl ones but
not related to text encoding like the 2 you mention.


IMHO, these functions would be better located in the FPC RTL, as they are more "general" than what the Lazarus library is about.

Same might be true for UTF8 helper functions.
