After we converted the source base to be fully UTF-8, we do not need to use 
unicode sequences (like \u0123) in string literals. Sometimes, that might still 
make sense, as for control characters, non-breaking space, etc. But for strings 
that is supposed to be a coherent text in a language that needs non-ASCII parts 
of Unicode, this is not so. Instead, having the sequences makes the text just 
harder to read and edit. We have already removed several such sequences before, 
but some remains.
