Just a note to be careful about your terminology. "which see unicode"
is meaningless really, utf8 is unicode, utf16le is unicode, utf32 is
unicode, etc they are just different encodings. I think you mean "raw
codepoints", but i doubt that JS operates on UTF32 (aka raw codepoints
at this time), it most likely operates on utf16le or utf16be.
(Whichever one Windows uses internally).
