Within the constraints of the non-unicode Emacs, it seems to be The Right Way in that it's a heuristic that fixes all the places where we've already had to introduce a fix, and I can't think of a place where it's going to break something. I.e. it's a much better heuristic than the one we currently have. Also it allows us to remove the heuristic code (in quail and self-insert-command, and soon in isearch) we've added at various other places, so it cleans up the code a bit. Since that code is not necessary in Emacs-unicode, it ends up bringing the two closer which I think is a good thing as well. I.e. it just feels Right. Stefan
