> Where should a UTF-8 module be put? Text.UTF8?

See
	http://www.haskell.org/~simonmar/lib-hierarchy.html

(I really ought to put this in the repository somewhere).

Text encodings are in Text.Encoding at the moment.

I think we should start with lazy steam encoders/decoders, and later add =
monadic versions and ones that work with arrays.  For GHC, we'll want =
some really low-level ones that work on ByteArray# for use in the I/O =
libraries, but that can come later (maybe use libiconv?).
