Indeed, it most certainly violates the principle of least surprise.

However, I fail to see how those reasons would apply to printf. Except for the surrogates U+D800...U+DFFF, it looks like an arbitrary restriction, which only makes the printf implementation incompatible with other GNU programs (like Bash and Emacs).
