Even in 2010 I'm still writing only texts which need the characters
from the ansinew codepage. I don't know any language which use a
different script. In the few cases I had to insert a greek word in a
text I could use ^^-notation or \char/symbol or a transscription. 

So why should I care if an editor can handle chinese or arabic? 

Should I really invest a lot of time to get used to another editor
only because it has features I will probably never need?
