Think about w3m, It must run on framebuffer to display pictures. 
But, I must run on fbterm to display CJK characters .....

to re-write w3m ? And possibly hundreds of other software to just make
sure to reject my patch ?

Well, if you have that time, please find out those softwares that need
to rewrite, and, send patches to them. I'm sure they will just reply :
why not handle UNICODE in kernel ?!
