I was thinking today about the situation where someone is Korean (for 
example), and they try doing "perldoc README.kr" (or whatever it ends up 
getting called), and they can't see the content, for any of a dozen reasons.
I was a bit bothered by that possibillity, until I recalled that if they 
could always just look at the README.kr file in their browser, and have it 
appear as a plaintext file in a selectable encoding.  Since, in my 
experience, if people only one program at all that can render their 
language, it's their browser.
