The "whenever byte 33 occurs in the encoded stream that byte is an
encoded ! character" part of this seems suspect to me.  Are you
checking the bytes for byte 33, or are you still checking characters,
and one of the characters is byte 33, then you assume it is ! ?  If
you are just scanning bytes, I would assume that some UTF-8 characters
could have a byte 33 encoded in them.

Although I'm not a UTF-8 expert.
