1) We want to
Hi all,
since utf8 encoding is everywhere by now, and since switching the useflag
unicode off without taking precautions is a way to hose your installation, I
would propose to medium-term get rid of this flag.
Suggestion:
1) use.force unicode now/soon in the default profiles
2) step by step,
