Some quick thoughts -- I think we should do this. We are, after all, perfectionists. Not only do we want to show even more love toward the international community, I just like the idea of passing Unicode strings everywhere. It seems so clean. The only big problem I see is that it could confuse the (unfortunately large) mass of programmers who don't understand Unicode yet. That is a big potential pitfall. If we're going to do it, we should do it before 1.0, and we'd need extensive tests.
