8byte seq. representation of 88?? Hangul syllables (specified in
the annotation of KS X 1001:1997) in EUC-KR are not converted back to
corresponding precomposed Hangul syllables in Unicode.
This may not have much practical implication as Unicode->EUC-KR
conversion, but for the sake of completeness and round-trip
compatibility, this is to be implemented as well.

I take it back. This part is not done yet. Mark as M10. Reopen it. The Unicod to
EUC-KR part is done.

Unlike what I wrote when filing a bug report, it could be useful/necessary if
somebody
send emails/write web pages in EUC-KR on a platform supporting only 2350
syllables in
precompose form and use 8byte seq. for the rest and recipients/viewers of those
page
are sitting at platforms with fonts supporting all syllables(e.g MS-Windows). If
8byte
seq. in EUC-KR is properly converted back to a precomposed syllable, UCS2 ->
Windows-949
(or UCS2-> hanterm-johab) converter can be made use of to properly render it as
a single syllable.
Summary: EUC-KR -> Unicode converter → Support precomposed hangul in EUC-KR -> Unicode converter
Change summary from "EUC-KR -> Unicode converter" to "Support precomposed hangul
in EUC-KR -> Unicode converter"

Target Milestone: M10 → M14
change to M14 since this is post beta
Target Milestone: M14 → M16
Move to M16 since it is not a beta stoper.
Move it to M18

I've made a patch to fix this bug and it seems to be working fine.

The URL given above has an example of Hangul represented this way.
I'll upload the patch to bugzilla after cleaning it up. 
Depends on: 88944
