They miss an important bit: strings. coreutils cannot deal with unicode strings, just ASCIIZ. Nowadays one should not assume strings are ASCII or Latin1 only. Searching must include normalization, -i must use proper case mappings, sort ordering need to be observed, ... My fork on GitHub adds unicode support and -g progress-bar for mv and cp.
