Well, I'm also against complexity without need!  But, referring to IANA
registry document
(http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/character-sets), the cs alias
is for the printer MIB.  And latin9 alias is to follow other iso-8859
registrations.  But, if nobody cares about it, then I would certainly drop
them when I will rerequest the registration after the iso final ballot. 

I will also put the request at that time(after iso final ballot) with the
new rfc procedure (rfc2278).
