Yeah, I've got one too in HBase, but I'd need to port it to the regular 
Prelude, and there's no point if there are two other versions...

Anyone want to do a UTF-16? It's dealing with "surrogates", probably a 
bit simpler than sucking different numbers of bits out of UTF-8 octets.

UTF-32 should be trivial. Once upon a time there was UCS4, a 31-bit space 
for characters. Then apparently they decided they didn't need more than 
17*2^16 (=3D1,114,112) characters, and now we just have what UTF-16 can 
reach.

Then there are charsets. Data for them might be on the web somewhere.
