QSettings doesn't have a way to change the codec at all as far as I can tell,

relevant that is for the discussion.

Just replying to this point: it's another API that used to accept an encoding in Qt 5 (setIniCodec) and did not necessarily use UTF-8 there. Not only we dropped that support, but we also broke backwards compatibility -- people requiring Qt 5/6 compatibility for INI files have to force UTF-8 encoding (in Qt 5). AFAIK, the whole reason for this is along the same lines of this broader topic.
