Dave mentioned the client potentially crashing. I don't buy that. An FTP =
client can obviously handle ASCII if the desired LANG is not supported, =
so then it's going to crash when it sees the same characters when =
another language is negotiated but it otherwise sees the same text. It's =
not like 7-bit ASCII characters never occur in languages that use other =
scripts.

Maybe at this point in the discussion it would be good to hear from =
implementers. There are already tons of NAT44 FTP ALGs out there, I =
wonder how those solve this.=
