I'm not arguing that we do nothing. Are you saying we should use
CP_UTF8 *in preference* to wide character APIs? Or that we should
implement CP_UTF8 first and then wide chars later?

Honestly, I don't understand the details enough to argue either way.
 
Or are we in
violent agreement that we should implement wide chars?

probably -- to the extend I understand the issues :-)

But I am arguing that anything that makes it "better" that actually gets implemented is better than a "right" solution that no one has the time to  make it happen, or that we can't agree on anyway.
