It DOES, however, underscore the fact that Unicode support is so much easier
than supporting every random code page that the only reasonable way vendors
can keep up with every single market is to have a good story for Unicode
support.
Certainly if there is no business case for a company like Microsoft or IBM
or Progress (<g>) to support a particular non-standard code page, but then
Unicode supports the script, then suddenly there is an avenue to support the
script, right?
