Yeah, but I'd argue that maybe for debugging purposes you could life with
the (unwanted) aliasing of a few "equivalent" code points.

However, this would involve a conversion on the target before delivering the
stream to the host, which we do not have at all in Paul's scenario if I 
understood correctly - so I'm out of ideas (besides doing what Paul suggested).
