I was under the impression we needed this (10646 as the standard document
character set) for 2.0 in some form to resolve the question of numeric
character references, or else we needed to remove some language about other
charsets and make 2.0 talk about Latin-1 only.
(I'm basing this on the response we got from SGML folks a few weeks back,
that raised the importance of resolving this issue.)
