Yes, I have complained about that a while ago to the words people and
the next big refactoring coming for that code will clean that up.

Yes, but trac on sagemath.org for example shows crap characters in the
diff and I have seen enough editors cause trouble. For an umlaut or
accent here and there this isn't a big issue. But where do you draw
the line, i.e. CJK comments, etc and our conclusion was 7 bit ASCII
all the way. It won't make everyone happy, but it will make me happy
since I do not have to deal with crap like failing cloning over and
over again because not all files will be marked as UTF-8 :)
