Hi all,
I have been developing/convering a software to support multiple
languages, especially Japanese, Korean and later on French etc.
i have increased all the required fields by a factor of 3. Keeping "True,
but within a year or so, there *will* be surrogates assigned in Unicode. "
in mind

I do not see a practical way to handle such a utility. take (for
example) Windows 2000, with its almost 100 keyboard layouts, each having 1-8

You could define a UTF that mapped scalar values below to the same as
UTF-8, and values above to a 6 byte value. It would *not* be UTF-8, but it
can be well defined.
If you look below D29 -- p. 46 at the first full paragraph -- you find that for
round tripping, UTFs are required to map
