Replying to you both here : |

No, this is something that must happen on all layers. I'm not sure on |
| 30 |
how to actually go by it really. For one thing I guess we'll need a |
| 31 |
complete font set, unless we'll just get odd squares in the text; -) |
| 32 |
other things remain to be seen is how terminals work and handle it, as |
| 33 |
well as translations and input. |

The reason I brought it up here is that I feel a bit out of my league, |
| 37 |
but its something that I'd want to learn more about, and poke some more |
| 38 |
in, so those here with experience on getting things to work, can you |
| 39 |
recommend things please? |
