Note that the "Bitmaps" used by rx are only bitmaps within US-ASCII, to
keep size down.  (Just imagine how big it would be if I tried to put in
a bit for every Unicode character!)  Instead, high bit characters are
encoded in a separate string.  It seems to me that this behavior isn't
useful in the general case.

Wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in
New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. And radio operates
exactly the same way. The only difference is that there is no cat.
