At the very least, a change like this needs a transitional strategy, like
it has been used during the 2.x series:
* In 3.3, accept "locale" as the encoding parameter, meaning the locale encoding
* In 3.4, warn if encoding isn't given and the locale encoding isn't UTF-8
* In 3.5, change default encoding to UTF-8
3.5 should be 4-5 years off. I actually would not propose anything
faster than that.
