That's why perlunicode.pod recommends wrapper functions for the time
from now till extensions start providing their own convenient methods.
The wrapper function can then be extended to also fit for some
advanced version of the extension it wraps.
I have no better solution, do you?
Umm, actually, since Encode::_utf8_on() is _just_ turning on the utf8 flag
then it won't 'break' if the driver has already done that itself.
