1) Nobody can break something which not exist yet.
2) The stuff discussed is optional and not using it you got old
functionality.

Not for this reason, but because it must be implemented at higher
abstraction level first to be considered. Since I have no much interest
in multibyte characters, it is not mine task in general, but others.

Again, I see no way how it can break nonexisten support. Remember that
conversion table is optional and without loading it you got exact previous
functionality variant.

Very similar stuff is in MSDOSFS for years and nobody complains.
