Re: [svgwg] UTF-16 code points for addressable characters

Unicode points would be better. Hmm, I wonder if anyone actually uses 
UTF-16 to map characters to text attributes. SVG1.1 uses UTF-16 due to
 its use in DOM2, see 
https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/text.html#InterfaceSVGTextContentElement
It appears DOM4 allows both UTF-8 and UTF-16 
(https://www.w3.org/TR/WebIDL-1/#idl-DOMString) in some cases.
