Comment (by chrisz):
Actually I would even make utf-8 the *default* encoding for friendlyforms
since I don't think iso-8859-1 every was the official default charset.
Maybe it once was a de-facto standard, but the current de-facto-standard
is certainly utf-8, and it's also the official standard in several RFCs
now. See also http://htmlpurifier.org/docs/enduser-utf8.html#whyutf8 which
says "There is no official way of determining the character encoding of
such a request" and gives other reasons to use utf-8 (mainly the
difficulties arising when chars outside the iso-8859-1 charset are used).
