Your explanation is why this is a docs enhancement proposal rather than a
bug report: as far as we're aware, all encodings that get used as locale
encodings have the property that encoding "-X utf8" with the locale
encoding gives the same answer as encoding it with ASCII.

Encodings where this isn't true (like UTF-16-LE) don't get used as locale
encodings.
