I suppose there are (quite decently workable) solutions for this. Either 
the RTL (and LCL, FWIW) comes in multiple versions that are used as 
appropriate (user selectable and/or automatically selected), or a string 
type is used that knows about it's internal coding and conversions are 
dynamically done when appropriate.
