I'd rather not have the choice, this will be a bit easier to maintain
then.

no, that is not a good option.

This is not enough, we also need to create char_traits<Uchar>
(also that is bad... be want to use the basic_string to make strings,
not std::vector)
wstring is supposed to be ucs4, at least in gcc libstdc++
so we should use that.
so I'd prefere
typedef std::vector<wchar_t> Text;
and then in paragraph

ok.

I am still a bit ambivalent concerning this, but I suppose you are
right.
