Today, most computer users are Windows XP users :)

In my opinion the true compatibility problem comes merely from legacy
applictions, rather than from documents exchange between users.
What is the 8 bit versus Unicode situation on Linux ? How many
applications requires Latin 2 as mandatory ? What is the workaround in
such cases ?

Other than that, I tend to agree with Jani Monoses's comment "still, if
those correct characters are not getting used the situation will
persist indefinitely."
