What do you mean by "internal representation"? Conversion from
any to utf-8, processing by the code and conversion back to the
original charset is really internal, transparent for the user.

But such the internall conversion would be perfect, no new
characters is introduced (except formatting like newlines,
spaces).

The question is: what charset will be in draft for edition?
Original, converted to something (e.g. according to locale) or
utf-8. This is no longer internal.
