Just an update: I exchanged some emails with Julik and I'm going to try to get the Unicode gem working on Windows. Once that's done, we'll package a cross-platform gem of Julik's String-fixer (which relies on the normalization methods in the Unicode gem). This will solve the most egregious of the String problems at the source.
I also encourage people who need i18n in Rails to try my Globalize plugin at http://globalize.diluvia.net, and to help out with feedback, bug reports, patches, and advocacy. Josh Harvey http://shnoo.gr
