PHP's Unicode roadmap?

Hi,

I've been trying to locate some documentation on where PHP is headed in
terms of Unicode support.  Currently my impression is that PHP4 is nowhere
near Perl 5.8.0 and a quick glance at PHP5 doesn't reveal much in this area.
(These are impressions.)  Python, being a new comer, also seems to be more
advanced than PHP, though not as much as Perl 5.8.

More specifically, Perl supports features such as Unicode Normalization
Forms -- very important for many of the world's languages requiring composed
characters (i.e. code point + arbitrary diacritical mark).

Any information appreciated.
