I pushed part of your changes.  Some I rejected on my own
accord.  My earlier point stands, there are many more
instances of UTF and other shit that you didn't touch.
Moreover, if we do this for `UTF', why not `HTML' or `USB'
or whatever?

Thanks for bumping this, and any further changes are
welcome.

As always, patches welcome.

Thanks,
