I didn't add this to JIRA, because I was not sure if this is really some
BUG, or I'm just missing something.
I was hopping to get some clarification here on the list.
I understand that to reduce complexity, there could be
webwork.i18n.encoding property, but that will also reduce flexibility to
configure velocity to each one's specific needs.
I think both options will be able to co-exist peacefully, with
possibility to specify your encoding globally to webwork or just in
velocity.
I would like to hear opinion of others (maybe VelocityResult @author Matt
Ho) in this subject, but probably this is not a priority issue for en_US
people :)
