Hi!

mb_str* - shouldn't you in 6 just convert them to unicode and do all string
operations with Unicode strings? Also, in 5 isn't there some intersection
with grapheme_* functions?

mb_strwidth() and mb_strimwidth() are not covered.

True. I wonder what this function is useful for?

mb_output_handler - shouldn't setting the proper encoding in 6 do the same job?
mb_convert_encoding - don't we already have a number of functions that do 
encoding conversions?

I don't think It can gracefully handle characters that have no
corresponding entries in the target character set. I'm even thinking

That's a common problem, IIRC PHP 6 converters have configurable error modes for that. Don't unicode_set_error_handler() and unicode_set_error_mode() do what you want?
