There is interest.
But as you said yourself:
- bzr-gtk uses utf-8,
- bzr itself uses utf-8,
- Qt requires Unicode.
So a shared version will need to encode its data in utf-8 and
qbzr being an interface between Qt and bzr will need to handle
the Unicode <-> utf-8 conversions.
This especially important for persistent data but also for shared
data.
