I've just bounced a q. off to SOAPBuilders to see what they think. 

To date, Axis does what? UTF-8 only? So moving to UTF-8 and UTF-16 only is an
improvement, and brings us in line with WS-I

But if we add support for arbitrary encodings, then we complicate SOAP for
everyone. Someone could write clients that post requests in, say, Sanskrit, have
it all work on an Axis impl, and then complain when the service implementors
moved to gSOAP. 

For the sake of interop, therefore, keeping the #of encodings we support
constant and matching those everyone else does, would seem to be a good thing.
