I'd like to see a package (or built-in) to support UTF-8.
But that's just me.  I do a little bit of Polish and Japanese
and might do a little Burmese, so I need Unicode.  But since
I'm mostly English and Spanish and French, if I used UTF-16
my files would be 49.x% zero bytes.

I have often been tempted to write such a package.
Has it already been done?

I admit it--I don't even know what UCS-2 is.  :-)
