Ezio Melotti <ezio.melo...@gmail.com> added the comment: Having the 'high bit set' means that the first bit is set to 1. All the continuation bytes (i.e. the 2nd, 3rd or 4th byte in a sequence) have the first two bits set to 1 and 0 respectively, so if the first bit is not set to 1 then the byte shouldn't be considered part of the sequence. I'm trying to work on a patch.
