UTF8 _should_ be around the globe, but we all now how slow it turns

May be I'm too free for the user with my wish to not decide for him
about the charset to use?
May be there are old installations out there with latin encodings. After
a switch over to utf8 they may get some ugly data outputs...

And a last "may be" we could switch over to the smallest common: 7Bit
ASCII? *kidding*
