Current Emacs doesn't give utf-8 the higher priority than
iso-8859-1 in Latin-X language environment.  Are you
proposing such a change?  I can't decide that is good or not
because I'm not that familiar with such locales.

?? Even on GNU/Linux (ubuntu), when I start emacs as this:

% LANG=de_DE emacs

iso-8859-1 has higher priority than utf-8.

Or, do you mean the other applications on GNU/Linux?
