This user-visible change would affect much more than ispell.
Is it the right thing in general?
Or, if this is a problem only for ispell, we can make series
of "safe" coding-systems for ispell.
Making a full range of alternate coding systems would be a nuisance
and inconvenient for ispell.el to use.
Or, we can add a global flag, say
`inhibit-unsafe-iso-escape, to tell encoding routine not to
produces those escape sequences. Then, ispell can let-bind
that variable to t on encoding.
I think the last one is the best solution.
I agree, that would be much easier to implement and to use.
