Hi !
I did not thought that it would pass your inspection - changes are bit too heavy. :-)
But it just gives you direction in where to dig, to get unicode supported - since I suspect it's wanted feature. 
We have plenty of third party libraries and contacting each developer or maintainer or pretty much non-sense, especiallysome of libraries are not being developed anymore (like GLE).
If you give me some hints in future for your coding style / code maintenance requirements - may be I can tune code tomake it suitable for your needs. But I can only test windows platform currently, no need to support others. (For me at least)

As just discussed on IRC, this patch is much too intrusive and can't be
accepted as is. It changes more things that it has to, it uses C++ and more.

We've discussed fixing the case for unicode in the past, but it has to be done
in a way that we can merge. This is not that way.
