Support, as proposed, with whois output kept at Latin-1 unless a client
signals "yes, I can handle UTF-8", and just using UTF-8 in the more
modern protocols (RDAP, Web API, etc).
FWIW, my client started asking for UTF-8 output from the RIPE server since version 5.6.1.
Older versions expect Latin-1 encoding as usual.

It is available in Debian 13, but most other distributions apparently do not care to keep the whois client up to date in stable releases:
