I agree. Every single problem that I can recall Linus bringing up as a  
consequence of HFS+ treating filenames as strings is in fact only a  
problem if you then think of the filename as octets at some point. If  
you stick with UTF-8 equivalence comparison the entire time, then  
everything just works.

Granted, this is a problem when you have to operate on a filesystem  
that thinks of filenames as octets, but as I said before, this doesn't  
mean the HFS+ approach is wrong, it just means it's incompatible with  
Linus's approach.
