Please forgive me bumping this, bit I think my questions are valid and I can't find authoritative and relevant info on php.net or Google.

If indeed I have broken protocol, as feared in my ending, could anyone please tell me so (off list in order to reduce the noise, of course) and kindly point me to a better place to ask these questions?

That simplifies things. I actually believe that the word about this has
to spread, since I am not the only one with the impression that these
functions are going.[1][2][3]

I can not find any open bugs on this, but did find the meeting notes
that confirms Andrei's message.[4]

As for mixed messages. Is not the fact that they are listed on this
page: http://www.php.net/~scoates/unicode/render_func_data.php an
indication that the work already has been done?

Also: Am I correct in assuming that the new ICU-based ctype functions
will use locale_set_default() instead of setlocale()?

(A side note: Will the preg-functions continue to use setlocale()?)

And finally, I hope my asking these questions are not out of place. I
chose this list since I need authoritative answers and my questions are
about internals issues. I beg your forgiveness if I have contributed to
any unnecessary noise.
