A question for the non-English wiki contributors out

honestly care that MediaWiki shows byte counts and not character
counts? If so, why do you care?
If the count itself is useful (I don't think it is), then it is
probably way more useful when it's remotely accurate.
Of course, if the inaccuracy doesn't matter, then perhaps we could
just display random numbers next to the changes. That might be just as
helpful, and will save us a lot of trouble.
