I love LPeg but don't see anything useful it could do with UTF-8 that it
doesn't already do. LPeg already handles parsing UTF-8 fine (for those
who don't know: UTF-8 is a superset of ASCII). Any built-in "magic"
would only reduce the flexibility for users of LPeg, unless you're
considering an add-on module like "re". That would be fine of course but
I don't really see the need for it, given that modules like slnunicode
are available.
