   The problem is not in the Splitter itself - the problem is in locale
data. Locale data is the accumulated result of long research. Many people
collected the data (how to represent national symbols, how to sort them,
which are printable, which are alphas, etc), organized it and put into
locales.
   If you are going to get rid of locale - where you will get this
information? You need it for every language/encoding you are going to
support.
