Given the really small number of locales (character sets), this isn't
unreasonable to expect from the user or admin, IMHO.

It seems even jidanni is confusing these...
ok_locales is *not* a whitelist. The fundamental difference is, that
whitelists result in a negative score, since it is a strong sign of
being not spammy. There is no whitelist part. Thus, there is no
blacklist counterpart. It just doesn't come in pairs. ok_locales is a
rather neutral setting.
With something like a charset, it just is not a strong sign for a ham.
Unless someone positively can confirm, he never received a spam using a
western charset...
While I do see that not_ok_locales *might* serve as a shortcut, the
corresponding ok_locales line usually won't be any longer. However, it
might come slightly more natural to the user, who failed to read the
documentation and examples (sic) carefully...
