Yes, but I find the current behavior unsatisfactory because it is the
responsibility of the user to set the correct encoding for the temporary
file. Otherwise it is appended as is, in an incorrect way; in my case emacs
saw the temporary file as an iso-8859-15 file (which was technically
correct), and then poedit merged it as is with the original utf8 po file. So
there are two ways to correct this in my opinion :
- the temporary file is created with the correct encoding
- the temporary file is converted after it has been saved, before being
merged.

Of course if poedit does not currently use encodings, this will be a bit of
work. But this bug is a wish after all :-)

I think just about anything would work ; besides it is highly locales and
emacs/whatever dependent unfortunately...
