If the support of UTF-16 and UTF-32 is planned, I'll take this to attention during refactoring. But in many places besides the tokenizer the ASCII compatible encoding of source files is expected.
Perhaps another way of looking at this:
Is it feasible to drop support for arbitrary encodings and just require UTF-8 (with or without a pseudo-BOM)?
