Re: use Encode; # on Japanese; LONG!

The compiled forms of the multibyte and two-byte encodings are
larger. So I envisage -MEncode=japanese (say) to load clusters.

   Once again it is programatically correct and politically incorrect.  
IMHO Encode loads nothing but ASCII and utf8 by default to be fair.

ASCII <-> UTF-8 conversion is not only fair but quite trivial :-)
