Actually, I can:
emacs -Q
M-x set-variable RET unibyte-display-via-language-environment RET t RET
M-: (set-buffer-multibyte nil) RET
C-q 0242 SPC
This should display ¢.
So I think we can get rid of making echo-area buffers unibyte, as long
as we make sure that variable is nil (which it is by default).
