Yes, partly because it was not implemented algorithmically. :)

I was browsing http://www-124.ibm.com/cvs/icu/charset/data/ucm/ and toying
with uconv, and wondered:

1) Does Encode have (or intend to have) them all covered?
2) If not, would a Encode::ICU be wise?
3) A number of encodings are in HanExtra but not their ucm repository,
   namedly big5plus, big5ext and cccii. Is is wise to feed back to them
   under the name of e.g. perl-big5plus.ucm?

Thanks,
