It's not easy to find a solution suitable for everybody. There exist so many character encodings, a single class or data type hardly will cover all of them. Windows users may be happy with utf-16 (WideChar/WideString) because that's supported by the OS and some of its standard controls, but other OS have different models and support. As long as strings are created, used, and stored by an application, I'd suggest to use utf-8 for the external (disk file) representation, and WideString in the application. Then only two procedures are required to convert between utf-8 and WideString. Strings from other sources then have to be converted by the appropriate procedure into WideString, where the coder is responsible for the selection of the appropriate conversion; then a general library of such conversion procedures can be created and maintained for use in Pascal programs, or the coder can use his preferred opensource library. Some coders may prefer WideString also in disk files, if utf-8 files would be bigger in their natural or preferred language. Of course an application also can continue to use AnsiString instead of WideString, if Unicode support is not required. All these selections are up to the coder, the required data types and conversions are already supported. A compiler may support an Unicode switch, that maps the general data types Char and String into either AnsiChar/AnsiString or WideChar/WideString, in order to support easily portable code. The switch may be extended to map WideChar into utf-16, utf-32, utf-64, or whatever will become available in future compiler versions. A similar effect can be achieved by user-defined data types TChar and TString in portable code, with the possible problem that there exists no standard unit where these data types can be defined unambiguously, throughout whole projects.

It's not critical or anything but I think it might be good if it made it to 2.0 I'm not sure but doesn't Delphi actualy ignore unused parameters?
