Currently plexus-archiver uses platform encoding for zip file names if none is specified. This is "compliant" with traditional Zip history.
But zip understood this is a problem and introduced a "LEF" flag, which basically means all entries must be UTF-8. I would like to switch defaults in plexus zip archiver; make it *disregard* platform encoding and always output utf8 + LEF, unless a different encoding has been explicitly specified. In consequence this would make zip behave like "jar" does; always default to the well-defined UTF-8 + LEF standard. This will break builds for people that actually *want* archives in file.encoding; they will need to explicitly specify encoding to get that encoding. To my understanding this is not really an issue, LEF support is ancient history. Opinions ?
