This means that as far as Sup can tell, it can emit iso8859-15 directly
to the terminal and not have to worry about transcoding anything. Does
that seem correct?

If so, then this may bring us to the very scary world of "why isn't
ncurses does the right thing on my particular
platform/terminal/encoding setup".
