Think about w3m, It must run on framebuffer to display pictures. But, I must run on fbterm to display CJK characters ..... to re-write w3m ? And possibly hundreds of other software to just make sure to reject my patch ? Well, if you have that time, please find out those softwares that need to rewrite, and, send patches to them. I'm sure they will just reply : why not handle UNICODE in kernel ?!
