I suppose these are omitted because they can vary in different environments?

But isn't Python built for a particular environment... seems like os 
could be included?

Seems like it would be helpful to have the utf8 encoding preloaded both 
to encourage people to use it rather than something else for the 
load-time performance gain (although likely minuscule for one encoding), 
and because they might as well, since they are spending the memory on it 
anyway!  :)
