Hi Lyndon,
I'm not so crazy about "." as a replacement character, though. How
about this: if your locale is UTF-8 we use the standard UTF-8
replacement character (U+FFFD, rendered as “�”), and any other
locale we use a regular old "?". That seems more intuitive to me.
'?' has a visual density similar to alphabetic characters, so it also
obscures the valid text.
Yes, but is this such an occasional and unusual situation that it
deserves to be signalled noisily?
He?r??e i???s s??o?me g?arb??l?ed tex??t.
He.r..e i...s s..o.me g.arb..l.ed tex..t.

Cheers, Ralph.
