Thanks. I suppose not only TPB, but also buffers for batch, events,

Yes.
Basically only DPB and SPB are "UTF8-ready".
If one wants everyting to be utf8 why not have appropriate attachment?
Having the connection character set UTF8 is IMHO a separate concern from
driver/protocol-related communication. The benefits of using UTF8 for
driver/protocol communications doesn't always work well with the
limitations that UTF8 enforces on the size of (VAR)CHAR columns. If we
ever design a new protocol, things like this need to be taken into
account.
