Non-localized cat pages must be stored in ASCII _only_ as lowest common denominator to be compatible with all sort of user locales. As I understand it (I mean non-localized pages part), single user whith ISO_8859-1 locale now can effictively store Latin1 8bit junk in cat pages, which affects all other (non-Latin1) locales viewers. Correct me if I am wrong or back it out. > Discussed with: des Not discussed with me, who is implementor of current scheme. -- Andrey A.
