Finally, I had a look at the "bellon-unicode" branch. I like the new
"--no-warnings" flag, being less dangerous as the --force flag.
However, that triggered the "consistancy" warning in me
(which has no relation to Steve's work!):

- The "--force" flag is generally used to override fatal errors, the
  "--no-warnings" is used to prevent warnings which the user
  can answer "y" (or "N") to. But there are currently two
  commands which use --force to disable warnings. There
  the --no-warnings would be more logical, now that we have it.
  Commands affected: "fossil clean" and "fossil scrub"
- Because "fossil clean" and "fossil scrub" used --force before,
  I would propose to let the --force flag imply --no-warnings.
  Then the user can still use --force, although --no-warnings would
  be preferred.
- "fossil commit" had the "--conflict" warning, which is the same
  as --force only for one specific type of fatal error: merge conflicts.
  I don't think anyone would know about this option (it is added
  after 1.24), intuitively I would use --force for that too.

This proposal is in the "bellon-unicode-v2" branch.

Nice work, Steve!
