Comment (by lukeplant):
One problem with this filter is how to correctly handle unicode, where
grapheme != code point. Perhaps some library can do it, I don't think
that Python bundles such a library. I don't think this is as much of a
problem with `truncatewords` because you rarely have a combining character
preceding a space (is that ever valid?).
