Three month spec freeze

Heya!

> I am in favour of 1, but not 2 or 3.
Everything makeworld said.

+1 for (1)
+1 for (2)
-1 for (3)

Note on (1):
I strongly recommend supporting utf-8 only. iconv -l lists 1179
possible/known encodings. I don't want to support more than one in my
code, most libraries don't support more than UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32 and
ASCII. And for UTF-16 and UTF-32 not even a difference between little
and big endian encoded data.

Encoding is hell, enforcing UTF-8 solves this and is even ASCII compatible
