--- Comment #2 from François Gouget <fgouget at codeweavers.com> ---
I don't know what Microsoft's plans are.

What I can tell is that:
* This feature has been present since at least Windows 10 1809v2 but is missing
in Windows 1709.
* What seems like the old way of setting the locales (using intl.cpl) provides
no way of setting a UTF-8 codepage and will fail when trying to set the system
locale to a Unicode-only locale.
* But the PowerShell API will automatically set a UTF-8 codepage when trying to
set the system locale to a Unicode-only locale.
* Seeing some of the bugs I suspect the corporations in India and other places
are probably being careful not to enable UTF-8 yet.

Can we run Wine in the Hindi locale without enabling the UTF-8 codepage? (which
presumably means setting the system locale to some English codepage)
