I'm not sure what you mean. UTF8 can represent all the unicode code points.

You should be able to create your list in UTF8 then uniEncode(theList,"UTF8") to set the unicodeText of the field. Then uniDecode a given line to use as a key.

I hadn't read the whole thread.. looks like Devin suggested the same thing.
