Creating a patch is not hard. The lazutf8 already contains the code. But I have
no idea how the the interface should look like. TCharacter is a Delphi class and
Delphi does not have UTF-8 functions. Michael wrote that these functions are
"implicit", so maybe these functions need to fit some form?
In other words:
Are there any suggestions, recommendations how the UTF-8 functions should look
like?
