Comment (by dmsnell):

 it could @SergeyBiryukov, but there are a few reasons I think it may be
 fine to leave.

  - `load.php` is already 2000 lines and can be slow in an IDE to work in
 if the IDE is applying styling lints and code sniffs.
  - there are many other common Unicode-related functions that I think fit
 there, including some that are already scattered and duplicated among
 `kses` and `formatting` and elsewhere.
  - "unicode" is a somewhat well-formed category on its own. If looking for
 some related functionality I might look for a `string.php`, `strings.php`,
 `utf8.php `, or `unicode.php` but wouldn't think to lookup `load.php`

 Happy to adapt; just wanted to share that when I proposed this I did
 consider leaving it even inside of `functions.php` where
 `_canonical_charset()` lives, but for similar reasoning felt it was a good
 fit for a new home.
