Maybe, I have seen such warnings. However I have tested neither utf8 nor
utf8x on real examples. That is why I am unaware what can be broken in
particular. For small examples with various symbols outside of ASCII,
utf8x may give better support.
Last time I did something serious with LaTeX, bibtex was 8bit internally
(unicode version had not reached stable Linux distributions, pybtex was
buggy), so that time I used 8bit charset.

Maybe my expectation from proper unicode support was too optimistic. I
see the reason why preamble is necessary with 8bit encodings. I
appreciate possibility to easily specify particular ttf or otf font. I
do not like that it is necessary to specify *all* fonts, otherwise some
characters are missed or compilation fails with error. I do not know if
new engines allows to get list of available fonts and to choose a set of
fonts with better coverage than lmodern.
I have tried LuaLaTeX with the following file. From some examples I have
found, I expect, further tuning is required. Apparent problem is missed
unicode characters in math mode. I admit that polyglossia is unavoidable
for any real text but I do not like that \set…font commands are mandatory.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\setdefaultlanguage{russian}
\setotherlanguage{english}
\setmainfont{CMU Serif} % breaks ∞
\setsansfont{CMU Sans Serif}
\setmonofont{CMU Typewriter Text}

I just have realized that fontenc behavior should be similar to inputenc
and babel, e.g. something like \usepackage[T1,T2A]{fontenc} should be
used for Russian.
