I know that I tell it every time Character issue comes - but aren't we
going to use alternative Character posted here some time ago (2 years?).
It had a LOT better performance (no object creation during check and
check itself quite faster) , encoded all data in Strings (so there was
no need to play tricks with loaders and dependency on gnu/something
class). Only problem I had was, I was unable to compile it with old
jikes due to some funny unicode.

Even if it might be out-of-date and non-compilable today, it might be
nice to maybe work with it ? Or otherwise tell me that it WON'T be used
ever, so I can stop touching this subject every time Character is on
board :)
