I can specify URIEncoding="UTF-8" in Tomcat's connector settings within the
server.xml file. Now, my Tomcat server correctly reads the URL GET
parameters correctly...sending out "Hello, José!" or "Hello, 田中!" as
expected. 

However, there's still a problem.

What if I want to POST some non-ASCII data, presumably to enter into a
backend database? All is well since I set that URIEncoding flag, right?
Wrong. It turns out that Tomcat, doesn't use this URIEncoding flag for
POSTed form data. So, what does it use? ISO-8859-1 of course! So now, I'm
back to where I started, and my imaginary application still greets Mr. ç”°ä¸
instead of Mr. 田中. Not good.

Why is this so?  Can I get the POST to behave the same as the GET??
