While writing it I realized I can just autodetect all input on char-by-char basis, skip most of the “offical” conversion tables and just focus on US-ASCII/Latin-1/first plane of UTF-8. My strniconv() is purely a 80/20 implementation, and that’s good enough for me.

Out of curiosity, have you made a standalone (iconv-like) tool using the
code you wrote? Even if it is just 80/20, that is something I could use
in some situations.
