True!  Of course, if you're saving in ASCII without that, you might as well 
edit the BibTeX directly with a text editor :).

The tack I've taken is to save in UTF-8 with TeX conversion enabled, which 
gives broadest compatibility with TeX, but doesn't give me warnings on oddball 
characters in annote/abstract fields that can't be converted.  Of course, I'll 
have problems in TeX if someone ever uses one of those in a title field, but 
cleaning annote/abstract is too tedious.  YMMV.
