 the argument that (1) it is Microsoft/ECMA to blame for not having
 alternative to specify UTF8 in System.Runtime.InteropServices.CharSet, 
 (2) how the concept of "ANSI" encoding is broken, (3) such a change
 will break Gtk# on Windows and there is no other way to solve the
 issue, *and* still tries to flood. It is like complaining against
 final and conclusive judgment, ignoring res adjudicata.

+I like your metaphor and agree with most of your comments. But there 
+are other ways to marshal strings as UTF-8.
+
+The easiest would be to add a runtime level setting (an environment 
+variable for example) that specifies whether ANSI charset is UTF-8 
+or Encoding.Default.
+
+Another solution that would be very proper and even supported on 
+MS.NET is to use custom marshalers that marshal managed strings to 
+unmanaged UTF-8 string.
