Another possibility is quasi-utf8 encoding. where it passes through any

It would not be reliable. I'm strongly against that: it gives an
illusion that Latin1 works, but it breaks in very rare cases.
I tend to agree with Marcin here - that doesn't sound like a good solution.
Incedentally, we do ignore encoding errors in comments (more by accident
than by design, though :-).
Cheers,
