Guess there's no unicode support.

Well, not via html entities.
22823 = 0x5927 (CJK unified) 大
23478 = 0x5BB6 (CJK unified) 家
22909 = 0x597D (CJK unified) 好

I've always wondered how the hell people manage to type in characters 
which aren't actually on the keyboard.

Sure, you can do that thing where you hold down ALT and type in the code 
number for the character you want. If you happen to be good at 
memorising vast lists of cryptic code numbers, that is. :-P Surely there 
must be some more efficient way?

  That's not unicode. It's XML.

Well, vi (gvim & co) have another shortcut than Alt+ ...

It's ctrl+v u 5 9 2 7 for the first one!
copy & paste is ok in thunderbird.

For the CJK people, usually the keyboard is paired with an input
"driver" which display the alternative until you select one.
(you need to know how to vocalise it, as you enter it in roman..)
There is also keyboard with the graphical clues as key (the number of
graphical keys/clues for CJK is reduced, the extension might be longer)

Perhaps you mean SGML? ;-)

  I don't think that makes it non-XML.

Depends on your perspective.

XML is a subset of SGML, and therefore every XML fragment is also an 
SGML fragment.

On the other hand, nothing about the fragment specifically suggests XML, 
and not one of the multitude of over SGML subsets. In the face of such 
uncertainty, you might argue that describing it as SGML entails the 
fewest assumptions.

But now we're just splitting hairs...

  But how likely is it that the original poster had SGML in mind when he
wrote those codes instead of XML? Who uses the entirety of SGML nowadays?

  But that's the fun of it.
