M$ is my to the same degree as it is yours. Your answer just
give M$ another chance to win (or to Win ;-) and I think it
is short sighted . For first
time users of linux this will only prevent them from using
it.

Oracle for linux, for example, doen't support koi8-r encoding
which is the only one correct for my language from your point
of view.
I don't know any program that exploits this standart, and
as long as there will be no way to switch this off at run time
I will have to recompile the kernel. And many people will just
use M$ instead of linux.
As for ANSI/ISO they have plenty of beautiful standards.
