Is there an interest having Expat able to produce UCS-4/UTF-32? 4Suite and now
Amara 2 use a patched Expat that can produce 32-bit Unicode values. It has
been in use for quite some time now (as in many years) without issue.
It was done to allow Expat output to be mapped directly to Python's unicode
objects (which can be either UCS-2 or UCS-4).
If desired, I can produce the patches required to add that support to the
Expat mainline.
