You are right.
How do you feel about allowing character references to C0
control functions rather than using them directly? I was once
told that such changes are harmful, since bidirectional conversion
between characters and character references is useful for I18N.
However, since #&xD; cannot be safely converted to carriage-return,
such bidirectional conversion is already impossible.
