from what I can see upstream libedit actually has utf8 support for a while

There's utf8 support and then there's utf8 support. last I saw libedit
didn't actually stop you from using utf8 and things kind of worked,
but none of the editing commands understand what the multibyte
characters were or understood what column position you were in so you
could easily end up deleting half a character or with the insertion
point in the middle of a character.
well I have not actually tested - I was just reading the changelog on
http://www.thrysoee.dk/editline/ which claims UTF8 "support" (whatever
that means) in the current code drop.
