I can't believe you are seriously suggesting to
allow this to limit us
so badly that we would even have to close down an entire wiki (Gothic)
and may possibly not be able to re-open it again in years. The same
applies to high characters in article titles on Wikipedias such as
Chinese that are actually active and may actually *need* them! If they
are using them already, and they are working fine, and now you're taking
it away from them, I don't think they are going to like you. I hope for
strong opposition to such artificial limitations.
If MySQL's Unicode support is not up to the task, then DON'T USE IT.
Maybe we can use MySQL5 Unicode support on all *but* Gothic and Chinese?
I doesn't seem like, for example, en.wikipedia would be severly limited
by the lack of high Unicode chars.
