(2 sort of implies 1 as well...)

If unicode MUST be supported on windows without lazarus hack, convert
the interface to unicodestring. (or maybe overload, but I would just
convert it all)

Well, convert to unicodestring was my initial proposol, but this was
dismissed in this discussion.
Overloading may make all users (except the maintainers of this code) happy?

Please add overloading using UTF8String. Backwards compatibility is not an idle word.
