   > The current UTF-8 encoding/decoding is strictly speaking incorrect, 
however, since it is consistent and encapsulated on server side (not exposed to 
clients), I do not see any real harm of having it. So, I totally support the 
idea of #1290 fix. Thank you for doing that!
   
   Yeah, it's definitely incorrect in terms of proper UTF-8 encoding but it 
still works fine as pointed out since it's encapsulated and it would be a major 
breaking change that would affect every OpenWire client that has been released 
for the last however many (probably 20+ years).
   
   I'm not against changing the encoding, but it just has to be done in a major 
version and a new OpenWire version. So it might be something to target for AMQ 
7.x. I guess it could be done earlier if we create a new OpenWire version but 
seems better to just target for a major version because it's working fine as it 
is.
   
   The super annoying thing is that we will have to keep support for the 
existing non-standard/incorrect encoding no matter what in order to support 
older OpenWire clients if we do decide to change it.
