Frankly, the use of the term "character" when referring to a "UTF-8
encoded Unicode code point" was for me a source of confusion when I
leapt to the conclusion of the unmet need of a UTF-8-length-aware
wrapped string type - be it called "G_UTF8String" or "GUString".
I recommend that all Glib documentation be rewritten such that
throughout all descriptions of g_utf8_*() functions, the parlance
"character" be replaced with "UTF-8 code point sequence" or equivalent
terminology.
Thank you.
