  The problem I can as far as I can see it is, unless we convert from charset to charset, we can't really provide for inter-charset communications..  Switching charsets midstream = bad.  Throwing off a new expat object for each packet, IMHO, also = bad..

  But I'm also not experienced at ALL in internationalization..  Heck, when I need to ./configure I always ./configure --disable-nls..  ;-P
