Yes, that was my example too (I think), but for instance separating fields on tabs or numerical sorting (sort -n) and concatenating strings have no real use for decoding UTF8.
In the regexp example you could make classes anyway ({\201å}|{\201ä}| {\201ö}), but I think I'd still rather use a widestring...
