Well - to be fair to it, the article isn't addressing the question of  
whether unicode is better than sjis or eucjp (which are encodings  
that fit the criteria you specify), but rather in what ways it falls  
short of ideal.

While it does not fit your criteria, does anyone know what  
applications / devices use TRON Cho Kanji 3?
