One of the things I like about the Unicode list is that people have, and
use, the freedom to post in different scripts instead of “ASCII-fying”
everything.  Hopefully, one day, it will become more common to actually
post these items *in* Unicode, instead of resorting to legacy encodings
like Big5.  I understand that the current situation, whereby e-mail
clients choose fonts on the basis of encodings rather than character
content, makes this difficult.
