What I am saying is that operations such as "convert to uppercase" on Unicode strings are locale-independent, and thus such operations need not and should not be part of the locale interface.
In which case you are wrong.
Hmm, it seems that as you say there are a few cases where locale affects properties/transformations, and so those facilities should be tied to the locale. Nonetheless, it does not appear that the existing ctype facet is suitable for Unicode. -- Jeremy Maitin-Shepard
