I believe this should work "by default". Not after setting some weird
3rd party environment variables. And this is what users expect.
Furthermore, this is how major Linux distributions behave.

That is especially true for FreeBSD, where most users don't use utf
locales and hurt by this problem. Doesn't totally broken filenames
look like a bug for you? In FreeBSD it's stated that everything should
work after setting LANG, why glib apps should be an exception from this
rule?
