"23.3.1. Supported Character Sets
Table 23.3 shows the character sets available for use in PostgreSQL."

But the table actually shows encodings (more precisely, "character
encoding scheme") (BIG5...EUC_JP... UTF8). I think we need one more
column for "character sets" (more precisely, "coded character sets").
Encoding Character set ...
BIG5 Big5-2003
:
EUC_JP ASCII, JIS X 0208, JIS X 0212, JIS X 0201
:
UTF8 Unicode
Wouldn't that make the table very wide? And for e.g. European character
encodings I am not sure it is that useful since most or maybe even all
of them are subsets of unicode, it mostly gets interesting for encodings
which support characters not in unicode, right?
