It appears that in the quest to write a better Properties class, the ASCII nature of existing properties files was overlooked. The problem I see is whether we are prepared to accept a backwardsly incompatable change here. The change is that 'ExtendedProperties will use ASCII as the default encoding, not the JDK default encoding because that is what Properties does'. This looks like a sensible change to me, and I'm not overly worried about the compatability here (most files will be ASCII). Any other views???
