I don't really understand why we can't make this an inline or something, it seems that it's a lot more convenient than the direct win32 equivalents. Making it an inline would achieve the same effect as simply replacing each usage manually, and allow us to improve DLL separation as well.
Because in 99.99% of cases you don't want to convert from W->A. If all our functions are Unicode, a W->A conversion is a warning sign, and for sure you wouldn't want to encourage people to do so by making it any easier.
