UTF8 encoding is stable in that aspect for decades, so don't expect any changes soon (or ever). Actually, gaps even increased (5-byte and 6-byte code points were removed) when they realized that UTF-8 doesn't need that much of encoding space, and to match the constraints of the UTF-16 character encoding.
