  * stage:  Accepted => Design decision needed

Comment:

 This is a really expensive change, performance-wise: every string now
 passes through a call to encode() prior to display. Since the alternative
 is do a more or less once-off translation of the source templates to
 UTF-8, I'm not convinced the performance hit is justified. I'm normally a
 big advocate for supporting more than just UTF-8 encodings because of the
 benefits to East Asian locales, but in this case even I'm not sure. Moving
 back to "design decision needed" for a bit more thinking.
