I just meant that as someone who uses English almost exclusively, I
don't ordinarily encounter wide chars and unicode, and I don't know how
they apply here. The hope was that somebody who IS familiar with
non-English keyboards would point out the shortcomings, and would know
how to address them. Eli, do you know how caps-lock works on foreign
keyboards?
