Yep, I remember trying something similar... it wasn't a dream:

> Jena-core and IRI currently depend on ICU4J for implementing Unicode support.
> Since ICU4J is rather heavyweight of which a rather small fraction is used,
> we should check if there is a way of implementing the functionality in an
> alternative way, either by (i) using built-in (standard) Java classes, (ii)
> other libraries that are already dependencies, or (iii) in a completely
> alternative way. This is also supported by the fact that since relevant parts
> have been initially implemented, Unicode support has been considerably
> extended in Java, see
> http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/javase/i18n_enhance/.
