To give a more serious response, I don't really expect anything
"simple" about this patch not to work on Windows, as I know that it it
rejects non-ASCII names as I showed (on all OSes), and I know that
compiles and passes our tests on all our 4 CI operating systems:

Really what I'm looking for is (1) feedback on the approach, code and
comments, and thoughts about more complex scenarios I may have failed
to think about, including say, pg_dump, pg_upgrade etc operational
issues, which probably involves lots of previous experience with
PostgreSQL, (2) opinions on whether we should add a test for these
cases and how to put the UTF-8 into a script (I'm confused about the
encoding of command line arguments), and (3) a nod from the EDB people
involved in distributing this software on Windows.
