Good issue. I'm in favour of it. Standards Are Good, especially font
standards. However, we are probably going to get some gruntling from the
(active) German and other non-ASCII-language-based Squeak groups...

I'm more than happy to take this on me; although I'm not an expert here
(ok, I read the Metafont book ;-)) I think these 'mainstreamization'
(m15n) projects are important to get Squeak adopted more widely (every
barrier brought down is another one - bring down enough barriers, and
people might even stop caring about the SqueakL issue).
