Perhaps. However, utf-8b doesn't really have to do anything with utf-8 -
it's an algorithm based on 16-bit or 32-bit code points.

If the error handler doesn't have anything to do with UTF-8, then why
do you use "utf8" in the name.

Please use a more descriptive name for the handler which does not cause
confusion with a existing codec.

Having already been confused, I agree.
