Hm. It's not clear to me how much bio helps here. We don't ...
in general ... care about runes. The characters it cares about for
parsing & the like are ASCII. Everything else is basically an opaque
blob. Converting from q-b, base64, and non-native character sets are
what we really care about.
The thought is that we move to utf-8 as the native internal representation of
all internal content. The switch to bio makes that happen.
