I suppose you are talking about Microsoft compiler? If so, I believe you
can get "non-native wchar_t" by passing appropriate compiler flag,
either using the <cxxflags> feature or when configuring a toolset.
Implementing a generic "feature" to control this does not seem reasonable,
given that it's limited to a single compiler.
