Well, here's another one: PEP 383 would disallow UTF-8 encodings of half
surrogates.  But such encodings are currently supported by Python, and they
are used as part of CESU-8 coding.  That's, in fact, a common way of
converting UTF-16 to UTF-8.  How are you going to deal with existing code
that relies on being able to code half surrogates as UTF-8?
