[Bug 816758] Re: libedit lacks utf-8 support

[linas]

Yes, it would be excellent if the UTF8 patches for editline were picked
up, per comment #5 above.

I'm the maintainer for link-grammar (a natural-language parser; many
users,  the abiword word processor) and I need editline, not readline,
for license reasons. I noticed recently that cut-n-paste of Russian
utf-8 text doesn't work with the current editline in Ubuntu precise.

So I really would like to get the utf8 support out into the world, asap.
