Here is another argument: Without the UTF-8 patch, there is still Partial (broken) UTF-8 support in the book. Some packages already enable UTF-8 (gettext, bash, glibc etc), and the testsuites require some UTF-8 locales. Thus, anyone who wants the UTF-8 patch removed should be responsible for additionally removing all UTF-8 support from the book (which I expect would be a much larger, more intrusive patch).
The best argument against it anyhow has been "it breaks jhlfs". >From the point of view of a common reader: "What the hell is jhlfs?" Shouldn't the main project be the focus, not one developer's side project? (No offense intended, Jeremy).
