It's not terribly tricky, just not too robust through the use of the eight-bit-x charsets. I don't think it's very important that reading and writing malformed sequences by utf-8.el isn't always idempotent. Presumably the three or four relevant test cases could be addressed in the CCL, but I think there are better things to spend the time on. - Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/
