+ The short answer, part 1, is that support in the browser itself has been horrid
+ for a long time; only recently have browsers supported UTF-8 well enough to make
+ this possible.
+ 
+ The short answer, part 2, is that while several people have ranted at us the way
+ that you did, not a single person who gets worked up about this has put time
+ into contributing the necessary code. We'd all love to see this happen, but no
+ one is paying any of us to do it and there are other things taking out time.
+ Eventually someone will probably scrape out the time, but the single biggest
+ thing you could do to help would be to start writing patches.
