Anyone who seriously wants to argue against Unicode will also have to
argue against Java, XML, the whole Windows platform, Qt, etc.

i.e. basically if Unicode doesn't support your language, you are not
going to be using any recent computer technology. So I'm quite
confident languages that aren't supported well enough in Unicode are
going to submit new code pages to unicode.org and get the problem
fixed.

Plus it's quite academic from a GNOME standpoint - there is no way we
could back off the Unicode strategy at this point, we're quite
committed.
