That's pretty much already there. 1 chars = 1, for comparing two
blocks of address units/chars, you can use COMPARE; dictionary search
is now address-unit based, and you can build a string using
s\" \x67~_\xA0\x90"; or you can just write the Chinese character you
are interested in directly in S"; that will be no less readable to
those who don't read Chinese, and more readable to those who can.
