I agree with you. APIs in locale module shouldn't aware UTF-8 mode.
`locale.getpreferredencoding()` is special, because it "Return the encoding used for text data, according to user preferences. User preferences are expressed differently on different systems, and might not be available programmatically on some systems, so this function only returns a guess."

There is PEP 538 already :) |
