I don't. I think that your point is interesting for default output
encodings (but, imagine that i install many fonts only as T1, what
would happen to me in language nohyphenation or english??), but not
for input encodings.

Maybe babel could emit a warning when you try to typeset some language
with not suitable encodings?
