Description
It's 2019, after all. Maybe we should introduce a flag that starts up the pseudoconsole host in codepage 65001 so that we make good on our promise of "emoji just work and everything else works like it should too," and use WT as a real opportunity to push the boundaries here.

maintainer note, Aug 2023
It's {{current_year}}, after all
Also, we want to take into account arbitrary codepages, ala #15678
