C.UTF-8 is not shown on purpose, because it doesn't need to be generated, it is always available on the system. What you want is probably to be able to select it as a default locale. The real issue is that the menu to select the default locale is only shown if there is a locale to generate. > others don't really apply and I'm unable to use a different locale setting > for date and lang.

A better workaround is probably to select a random locale to be generated, then you should be able to select the C.UTF-8 locale as default.
