Details

OpenVR code contains string handling functions that mostly seem to assume that std::wstring and wchar_t are UTF-16, which is true on Windows but not true elsewhere. https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/gfx/vr/openvr/src/strtools_public.h Fortunately, it seems that nothing calls these functions. Since std::wstring and wchar_t are not portable, it would be prudent to remove these functions before anyone adds code that calls them.
