You will be able 

1) send / get to Valentina strings in ANY encoding you want.

2) Valentina will be able STORE ON DISK strings in any encoding you have
specify for a field.

BUT, in RAM when it will work with strings it will work in UTF16 format.
All our algorithms will use strings in UTF16 format.

In this way work OS X and Windows.
