Who uses UTF-16 in this day and age?

It's a broken format.

It's not mentioned in the commit logs *why* this is done.

Honestly, I almost unpulled this one too when reading the commits. You
had completely insane BUG() cases there. They got removed in the end,
which is the only reason I'm taking this, but I'm not super-happy
about the insane half-way state or about the complete lack of
documentation about why things are done.
