Actually, you are mistaken; U+9152 does indeed represent the character you
wanted, else this (UTF-8 encoded!) message would not be able to represent
the characters, now would they? Thus is 8E F0 from shift-JIS represented in
Unicode.

Perhaps a rule needs to be imposed about the amount of sake that should be
consumed before submitting a character proposal? Or at the very least the
sake should be shared with those who are asked to hear the proposal? :-)
