SI/SO is also relevant for line draw characters and the like.

Here is a key for the default set in my (X11) term emulator,
I presume it is the same as what the console supports:

 _ ` a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z { | } ~
 ▮ ◆ ▒ ␉ ␌ ␍ ␊ ° ± ␤ ␋ ┘ ┐ ┌ └ ┼ ⎺ ⎻ ─ ⎼ ⎽ ├ ┤ ┴ ┬ │ ≤ ≥ π ≠ £ ·

Those are important, and the console should continue to support them
even when not in UTF-8 mode.
