ok, I found it in the FAQ at Unicode site. UCS2 is the old standard, before the need for escaping, now is considered obsolete by utf-16. So one can use UCS2 and do renunce to some asian alphabeths or use UCS4 that is not escaped, at least in Unicode version 4.1 and in foreable future. Now Unicode use 21 bits of 32.
