My first idea of the structure then:

A ConvertEncoding-unit, containing all the necessary types,constants, function prototypes and the Unicodestuff. (conversions between the different UTF-variants). It could hold some jumptables for the conversion procedures, which are initalized to a local dummy function.

Then I do not generate include files, but a complete unit for every codepage we add.  This unit will register itself to the ConverEncoding-unit in its initialisation part. So the user has full control over supported codepages of his application by simply using the the needed codepage-units.
