I see no clause defining the charset of text in Armor Headers.
Should an armored block be constrained to use only 7-bit mail-safe
characters, or should it be stated that Armor Headers may be in
UTF-8, or native charset, or what?
There's a reason why it's called ASCII armor, and not UTF-8 armor,
and at least PGP/MIME relies on ASCII armor being actually
restricted 7bit characters.
I don't think that vanity armor headers in arbitrary character sets
are even remotely worth the hassles and effort which they generate.
