lhs2TeX already has limited support for UTF-8 for the rendering of
Literate Agda files.

My point is that literate Haskell programs are not just Haskell files, but also, for example, markdown or latex files, or even database entries representing a wiki page or a blog entry. Such programs are therefore processed by third-party tools outside of the Haskell eco-system, and it seems unrealistic that the Haskell report could unilateraly mandate how they are encoded.

I think the Haskell report should not discourage Haskell implementations from being flexible about encoding.
