Short term, we should change the HTTP proxy code to always use UTF-8 as the 
character set for converting remote content bytes to strings before returning 
them to clients.  We should do this ASAP to prevent anyone from becoming 
dependent on the current undefined behavior.

Long term we might want to add some kind of character set detection, probably 
via the HTTP content-type header.  IE style charset content sniffing would 
probably not be a good idea.
