If it's immaterial (and I agree it is), the buffer should remain multibyte. We should IMO set buffers unibyte only if we have a very good reason for that, because doing that opens subtle loopholes we are better off without. Lately, there are less and less "good reasons" for using unibyte buffers, which is a Good Thing. > I'm removing that piece of the cargo cult now. Thank you.
