  I have to say that implementing Unicode and displaying
multiple languages simultaneously are quite different thing.

  Tweaking Squeak so that it can hold 2-octet characters is
not so difficult.  However, my sense is that it doesn't help
much (or I might say it hurts) to support multiple
languages.

  A good news is that I'm convinced by the Japanese
Squeakers that I should put the priority of the re-work of
multilingual framework higher:-)
