> Even Notepad warns about data loss when the file contains Unicode characters.

As well as LibreOffice warns when anyone saves anything to TXT, because there
will be inevitable loss - of formatting; of graphics; of metadata; of
information in headers/footers. No need in additional warnings about "also, not
all characters present in document *body* are representable in selected
encoding's charset".

Of course this is not Windows-only; it would appear on any platform with system
encoding being non-Unicode. However, on other platforms it's *usual* to use
UTF-8. But there exist Linux systems using e.g. KOI-8R, etc.

This is NOTABUG.
