Please add me to the interested parties. It would be nice to have a start,
even if it is not 100% producttion quality.

Did you already address the charset issue?
 
What charset issue? The driver just handles strings as-is, without any conversion. I don't know if it is the driver's responsibility to do character mapping, because there are other packages that handle this issue (namely, iconv). But there may be one problem or other regarding strings lengths (MBCS, WideStrings of 2 or 4 bytes etc.)

Honestly, I just use iso-8859-1 and am happy with it.

Next week I'll hold a day or two to upload something alpha-usable.
