It depends on the encoding. In UTF-16 encoding, all characters are
either 2 bytes or 4 bytes. In UTF-8, they can be 1 (for the first 128
characters), 2, 3 or 4 bytes long (depending on the character). LiveCode
6.x uses UTF-16 and should consequently have 2 byte unicode characters.

I have just uploaded a stack here: http://forums.runrev.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=18869&p=95344#p95344

which, I believe, successfully demonstrates that ASCII text does not get "promoted" [or otherwise mucked around with]
when moved into a Unicode text field.
