Are there still console fonts with no UTF-8 map in Debian?  If there

In my opinion we should be assuming that the font has UTF-8 map and
unicode_start should not load a font.

Soon I will make an upload of kbd with some functionality of
console-tools added (mostly the things configurable by
/etc/console-tools/config except DO_VCSTIME).  What else is missing?
