+1 Mike.
1. It would be hard for me to believe Key/Value are ever handled
internally in terms of Strings, but, if such a case does exist, it would
be extremely prudent to fix.
2. FWIW, the Shell does use ISO-8859-1 as its charset which is
referenced by other commands [1,2]. It would be good to double check all
of the other commands.

I agree with Benson entirely with one caveat. It seems to me that there
might be two categories of things being discussed
1. User data (keys and values)
2. Ancillary things needed for operation of Accumulo (passwords).
These could well be considered separately. Trying to do anything with
keys and values other than treating them as bytes all of the time
I find quite scary.
And if this is only being done to satisfy pmd or findbugs, those tools
can be convinced to modify their reporting about this issue.
