I think there is a misunderstanding, which I tried to address but evidentally failed.

UTF-8 is fine for a display encoding. However, not every string encoding need be a display encoding, which the parent post seems to not be considering.

You could also have multiple display encodings, if it makes sense to (a tool only intended for use in a certain part of the world for instance), however that is not what I mean.
