What's the point in mapping similar-looking characters to another one?
They are simply not the same and mapping a character from one language
set to one of an arbitrary other language can disturb sorting things
very much. Imagine our alphabet was A,B,D,F,G,H,...,C,E only because C
and E were mapped to the greerillew language characters that look
similar (or vice versa). Well anyway, I don't think I need this for now.
I'll simply make sure it's Unicode-capable, plugging in a string
converter later is still possible.
