Hi,

I wanted to use a Google API, but because of the user agent currently
used, it will force me to use ISO8859-1 instead of UTF-8.

I know that the "User-Agent" header is restricted, but it would be a
good idea to use one similar to the one that is used by Googlebot:
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/
bot.html)

The current one is
AppEngine-Google; (+http://code.google.com/appengine),gzip(gfe)

So the new user agent could be:
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; AppEngine-Google/1.0; +http://code.google.com/
appengine)

It's not about "cheating the server", it's just to use a "modern" user
agent to prevent legacy paths. I'm sure that this feature would be
easy to implement and would help most of people who are having
problems with urlfetch.
