ah, i hate so-called "nls" too. and smart programs that tries to mess
with my input bytes. i'm giving you byte -- you store it. that's all.
no utf-8, no checks, no translations. byte in -- same byte out.

be my guest. ;-)
but there is no need in extra work actually. using ASCII and English
for program UI will work in any encoding. and any byte with high bit
set should not be interpreted in any way. it's much easier than utf,
you see? ;-)
