   We know it is unsupported, but I'm pretty sure I've said multiple times   
   it can display in Golded just fine, with CHRS kludge, UTF-8 Cyrillic   
   characters (MANY other characters display fine, also):

   It indeed can be done. The problem is everyone's terminals and what else is   
   being used to run golded is different in every case.
