    It's just a lot of work for very little benefit: people have lived with this
    problem for a while now and haven't found the workarounds to be serious
    (basically: don't use utf-8 for those files and don't use
    unify-8859-on-decoding if you manipulate such files).

I don't follow.  Are you saying that this problem only occurs
for utf-8 encoding?
