I heard a request a few times for an additional one-directional conversion
from U+301C to EUC-JP (0xa1c1). It should not break existing applications.
We already have non-round trip conversions for IBM and NEC extended
characters in SJIS. The policy seems not so strict for me.
Anyway, we might need to revisit the area in the near term for unicode
Emoji issue.
