I don't really get the point of this function. There is AFAICT no

use this?
Some corporate data can be in CSV format with escaped unicode
characters. Without this function it is not possible to decode these
files without external application.
I would like some supporting documentation on this. So far we only have
one stackoverflow question, and then this implementation, and they are
not even the same format. My worry is that if there is not precise
specification, then people are going to want to add things in the
future, and there will be no way to analyze such requests in a
principled way.
