I know and I already seen that. My question was whether or not there
are implementation to map Unicode to Latin-X?

Anyway, thinking this topic deeply, I reached a simple question. 

Q1) Why are people using unify-8859-on-decoding-mode? What's benefits?

Q2) If a guy is using unify-8859-on-decoding-mode, is he want to
    encode a UNIFIED draft to Latin-N when sending? If so, why?

I guess if unify-8859-on-decoding-mode is used, it is natural to
encode a UNIFIED draft with UTF-8. Note that the range 0000-24FF of
Unicode(ASCII + Latin-X) can be encoded with UTF-8 without Mule-UCS
on Emacs 21.3.
