The question is whether it can be useful for a Unix shell session.

For example IBM CP 437 is useful, for example to run DOSEMU, or
because some older PC Unices (SCO) use it on the console.  On the
other hand, I don't see how a shell session could end up being encoded
in CP 949.

(On the other hand, I certainly have no ideological objection to
including Microsoft encodings.  Luit is by design the place to put all
the trash that we want to keep outside of XTerm.)

Yep.  I remember ;-)
