This is a good information.  I hope such people will hard-code
UTF-8 support up to two bytes.  Though I didn't find such softwares,
I heard there are such softwares.  We have to continue keeping watch
on i18n implement of softwares....

How about "em-dash" or ligatures such as "fi" or "ffl"?  Are they
doublewidth?
