It should be noted that there was some work done towards enabling an
alternate setting that would allow the developer access to the
unchanged (raw) args but it has not been finished yet.
This would allow any character set in args which I believe mainly
concerns non-English speaking developers/users.
If any of you feel, as I do, that this is important please voice your
concern.
