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.

Cheers,

Makoto
