Would there be any sanity in having an option to compile
Python with UTF-8 as the internal string representation?
It would break Py_UNICODE, because the internal size of a unicode
character would no longer be fixed.
It's not fixed anyway with the 2-char build -- some
characters are represented using a pair of surrogates.
But isn't this currently ignored everywhere in python's code?
