Dear FPC-all

It DOES NOT matter what unicode string (UTF-8 or UTF-16) would be implemented in runtime.

Really, does not.
Humans are flexible - trust me. Every State proves this everyday.

It matters - the compiler have not to be smarter than me. I'd like to DEFINITELY be sure that my string would not accidentally lose its encoding inside RTL.
Like one happened in http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=21668

Thats all.

regards,
Anton

Somehow I have the feeling that your mail will start the next round of this "Unicode flame"... -.-
