Seems fun. If nobody wants to, I can look at it.

LibUnistring has just reached version 1.0 https://www.gnu.org/software/libunistring/

From it's website:

This library implements Unicode strings in three flavours: UTF-8 strings, UTF-16 strings, UTF-32 strings, together with functions for Unicode charactets, character names, classifications, properties and functions for string processing formatted output, width, word breaks, line breaks, normalization, case folding, regular expressions.

Unicode support is something we're currently quite weak.

Wrapping it may be a easy route to have a better unicode support, at the price of adding a dependency.

It is worth to note that Gnome characters, Gnome boxes, mailutils, clisp and several other languages already depends on it so chances are most people already have installed...

If you think it is worth the effort I may wrap it as its design is really really similar to "plain" C strings
