I think it is safe to assume that the kernel enables UTF8 by default. I see little need to redo what the kernel has been doing anyway already. Or, in other words: if vconsole-setup for reason didn't work properly in the initrd we probably should fix that, not then try to work-around this be enabling UTF8 a second time.
