There's no voting process but you can disable them, see:

Btw. Louis I think the two level scheme is a little bit overkill and more complex that it should be, you should really keep it to a single variable. That two-level mechanism seem to have been design to work around issues in OS level support for unicode glyphs and it doesn't sound like a good idea. Also the description of OPAMUTF8 is misleading, UTF-8 characters may be output since opam files are UTF-8 encoded and AFAIK you don't transcode any output of the tool to ASCII when OPAMUTF8 is `never` (e.g. opam file messages: fields).  

Best,

Daniel
