I don't see your point.  Could I ask you to elaborate?

 
There's no standardized charset for Unix filesystems beyond 7 bit ASCII.
If you store chars >= 128 in one application they may become different
chars in another.

Why are you repeatedly saying that; it's not true, and examples have
been provided. If applications are locale-aware - which is standard
for a long time - you can consistently use what you like. Maybe you
don't know, maybe you mean something different, in any case, please
provide some evidence instead of repeating opinions so that we can
discuss that and see where any misunderstandings are or where we are
just talking at cross purpose.
