Currently, we are using unibyte buffers for various internal
operations (e.g rmail, tar-mode, jka-compr, ...).
It is theoretically possible to modify all of them to use a
multibyte buffer that contains only ASCII and eight-bit
chars. But, as it may make the operations slow, I don't see
a merit in doing that.
Is that what you want to know?
Yes. It means we certainly don't want to eliminate unibyte buffers.
