It would be nice to add a test demonstrating that this indeed fixes an
issue. This would also help to keep this from regressing in the future.

Also, do you know why we didn't use `utf8_strwidth()` right from the
start? It would have saved the writer some time to just use
`utf8_strwidth()` instead of writing a whole paragraph explaining that
we should do it eventually. Makes me wonder whether there is anything
else going on here.
