I've noticed another problem with both mbsnwidth and my implementation:
neither handles escape sequences. Should I add support for them as well
since it is used in address@hidden but isn't used in any other properly
encoded translation on TP (it's present in 3 badly encoded old files
though but they would result in incorrect output no matter what).
