There's a lot of discussion about this; practically changing the execution character set isn't trivial, and it's not necessarily even a desirable feature. Even with full -fexec-charset support, it still makes sense to provide compile-time translation from Unicode to target strings. For example, Commodore PETSCII makes vastly more sense as an execution character set than a source character set.
