I don't think that's true anymore. It may have been true ten years ago, but nowadays unicode and utf-8 is pretty much standard. For the sage source code itself, it probably amounts only to be able to spell most names correctly. But it will help fully supporting unicode, which is necessary for translations, and even for the english version students want to write comments and text in their own language, so the support is quite important.
