But when wchar_t* is UTF-16, ucs2_utf8_encoder() can not handle surrogate escape. We need to use a temporary Unicode object. That is what "inefficient" means.
Since real UCS-2 is effectively dead, maybe it should be flipped around: Make UTF-16 be the efficient path and UCS-2 be the path that needs to round-trip through Unicode. But I suppose that's out of scope for this PEP. -Em
