I just noticed the CodeGear roadmap and thought it would be nice to
see what they are planning to do so we keep somewhat close to Delphi's
improvements, they don't plan 64 bit support and CrossPlatform
compilation until 2009 at least but they do plan to switch to Unicode,
how will this be compatibl

Funny you mention it. I was thinking in similar lines. FPC and

A source code is a text file.
Free Pascal is already prepared to handle source code including a BOM marker.

Goal:
- IDE should load/save text files in non UTF-8 encodings.
- The IDE is compiled with UTF-8 LCL, so all internal functions expects
this.
- It is not sufficient to change synedit, because text is often copied
between synedit and other tools. And there many other IDE tools
