If I got this right, the idea was to replace the inputencoding on the
"language default" level, i.e. the "Encoding" tag in lib/languages.

Then we can use 'utf8' whereever this is supported, keep "jis-platex" for
Japanese and "cp1255" for Hebrew.

In the future, we may improve Hebrew support using 
"utf8" with "inputenx" or incorporating the replacements from
"ix-utf8enc.dfu" into lib/unicodesymbols and adding a \textheb feature
similar to \textcyr and \textgreek.
