I really doubt any proposal will get taken very seriously is it only supports one of the UTF encodings.
That is not necessarily the same as saying there needs to be a string class for each of the UTF- encodings.
Agreed. Without knowing exactly what functionality is to be supported for each UTF string, I find it hard to know if one basic_utf_string template could cover the most critical cases. Would a template be able to support random access iterators for the variable length encodings, for example? I just don't know. --Beman
