This is really needed (in any case it's great ;-) as most my songs are in
Hebrew and I don't want them specific to my Windows that treats >127 as
hebrew.  It would be nice if you will provide an "as is" -> Unicode
conversion button (probably should process all field at once, or have
separate convert and convert-all buttons).  This way I could already start
commenting my vorbis files (I was waiting for this moment several
months... :-) and Unicodify them later.  I'm almost sure the Win32 API has
an local->unicode conversion (unless Micro$fot designed things as it
usually does).

  No, No! You're not thinking; you're just being logical.
