Hi Ed,

> We can migrate internally to UTF-8 while keeping the current syntax rules, so nothing changes for the user yet (i.e. the database changes but not the interfaces). 
> 
> Once we use UTF-8 internally we can start to support non-latin-1 characters in attributes and convert interfaces to use UTF-8, as decided by the community.

I think this is a good idea. It's definitely a good first step in the right direction.

Cheers,
Sander
