Uwe Schindler commented on SOLR-4265:
-------------------------------------

Just to mention finally: No browser is ever setting a charset in the 
Content-Type header for "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", so we will always 
use UTF-8 (in fact its an "application/" mime type that requires no charset as 
it is strongly spoken binary data).

The special case you are talking about is just that somebody explicitely sets a 
charset for the BODY (not the URL!) in a hand-made HTTP request. If somebody 
does this, he knows what he does. But in that case, the URL is still defined to 
be UTF-8 encoded (as the standard says and Solr requires). But as we have a 
encoding given in the conent type, we must parse the body using the given 
charset. There is no way around.

> When you type an accent (in french language for example) in the console query 
> tester, there's no charset conversion (servlet request charset conversion)
> Eg.: "même" is converted into it's ISO-8859-1 representation ==> fail
> The reason : getCharacterEncoding from HTTPRequest is not tested. Il it's 
> null, il will assume to convert an UTF-8 encoding charset.
