There have been some progress on Microsoft side regarding console behavior in
general, yes.

But in general, Cygwin is surprisingly tolerable to the native console apps,
until they start to behave way out of the ordinary.

Small hint for many builtin tools - run `chcp 65001` somewhere in your shell
init script to hint the native app that it should prefer UTF-8 output.
Many Windows tools (including netsh, for example) will behave more
consistently in such case.
