You can not do that. Squeak stores the language of a character in
every character. In a web application you don't know the language of
the input and utf-8 certainly doesn't contain it. You could take the
language of the image but that is random and has no relation to the
input. You could also set the language of a character to unicode (255)
but that only works for non-Latin-1 characters, these are interned and
all have leadingChar 0. Did I already mention that the leadingChar is
used for #=? So no, I don't believe you.
