Perhaps it is, but it's a subtle anomaly: if I press C-\ while typing at
"C-x C-f"s prompt, I might not be aware that the input method I turned on
produces mule-unicode-* characters, and the glyphs displayed by Emacs
might not tell me that, since the same characters are supported by
Latin-2 and Unicode fonts. The default input method turned on by C-\
might be related to a document I was typing when I pressed "C-x C-f"; it
is quite possible to be in a Latin-2 locale where file names are encoded
in Latin-2, but work on a Unicode text.
