Hmm... I had skimmed the SCSU document a few days ago. At the time it seemed a bit more complicated than I wanted. What's nice about UTF-8 and UTF-16-like encodings is that the space usage is predictable. But maybe I'll take a closer look. If a simple SCSU encoder can do better than more "standard" encodings 99% of the time, then maybe it's worth it...
