It does not make much sense. It would mean that we have to widen or narrow 
every string read from the stream before putting in the tree. If really 
needed, this can be done later by constructing another tree and converting 
strings as we copy them from original. Anyway, this is rather a job for 
locale codecvt facets, not for property_tree library.
