Why? It would only work in the situation where you're talking Russia -> 
Russia. And in that case, the sender should have the russian codec set anyway 
in the message so it would not be a problem?

While I do agree in a North American sense, since we all speak the same 
language, I would think that you assuming that most people in European 
countries having people using the same codec on their list would be pretty 
incorrect...
