If the non-ASCII-named packages are just fonts (and other locale- specific data), I don't see a big problem.
Consider a case when a user have created a local copy of the whole Fedora repo, and then starts to prepare it. You have to work with several different font sets...
That's not a common use though (and certainly not an "emergency console access" case). Even then, what do you mean by "prepare"? I run a mirror (as well as a mirror at home), and I've built custom images, but I've never done anything that touched every package. If I really need to mess with them, I can use an appropriate tool.
