Doesn't that shove me (kicking and screaming every inch of the way...)
into fiddling with unicode, which in turn forces me (kicking harder, and
screaming louder) to deal with the god-awful abortion of CFString?
(Call me a throwback, or whatever, but I *HATE* the hassle of trying to
deal with CFString stuff - particularly since I have almost zero
expectation that this code will ever want to run on a machine that
speaks anything other than plain old ASCII English)
