The use of "-" on only the first line of a quotation is nonstandard,
and makes it hard for both people and automated tools to understand
the thread. Remember that your posts are saved for posterity, and
especially with a topic as important as Unicode support, it is
important to be able to easily review the discussion history for
rationales.
