I prefer to follow what the Unicode standards say about this.

There is no implicit encoding on wchar_t

At the risk of going off-topic ...

This is fully understood, and I believe the main point of Andy's pain is exactly that: There is no standard.

As a corollary, our shared grief is: If you have the choice, why chose the option that breaks a lot of people's code? As you yourself point out, UTF-16 would not have been an invalid or illegal choice at all.

Well, OK, it keeps us busy. So I guess I should not complain ;)
