Please check the connection URL, too. The default one contains encoding 
settings, too:

<property 
name="connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost/xwiki?useServerPrepStmts=false&amp;useUnicode=true&amp;characterEncoding=UTF-8&amp;sessionVariables=sql_mode=''</property>

What exactly is the behavior? Do characters end up as two or three 
characters? Are they replaced by question marks after a while? Do you 
get an exception when trying to save the document?
