I would wish that it would die as it is bad designed and have some bad behaviour, technical wise. However, I am realistic enough to know that it will not be possible to replace UTF-8 with better design's. It is like IPv6, there is no Plan B. Just I will only use UTF-8 where it is cleary specified (like XML) or where it is the only possible way to go. With everything else I stay with latin1. But this is just my personal view.
