I need to use Japanese language in a setting outside of the local language setting. Even my wife needs that (she's a native Japanese). Just switching everything to JA is simply not an option, and shouldn't be necessary if just UTF-8 could do the right thing. Granted, it does, to a certain point. But sometimes there are issues which I haven't been able to work around.
