I think if we support UTF8 encoding, than it make sense to create own charsets,

Say what? I cannot imagine a scenario in which a user-defined encoding
would be useful.
I did not mean user defined encoding but user defined charset. For example
[EMAIL PROTECTED] locale uses UTF8 encoding and collation is defined on czech
charset which specifies list of allowed character. If somebody will have
installed e.g. Turkish locale then he will want to have also Turkish charset in
postgres. I guess, Charset also defines how upper/lower case will work (see
i/I in Turkish).
Please, correct me if I wrong.
thanks Zdenek
