|Also, Mojikyo is much larger than Unicode.

Indeed.  I've heard some people used prototype of M17N Ruby to process
Mojikyo text.  Since Mojikyo character set is not compatible with
Unicode, it was their only way to process Mojikyo text using scripting
language.  That is one my primary motivation over the current M17N
design, although 1.9.1 does not support Mojikyo encoding yet.

|2. Provide good support for Unicode

We have just started to care about #2 lately, since we are about to
finish #1.
