Often the requirement for needing UTF8 is to be able to translate a website into multiple languages, while using the existing templates. One problem with this is that the static text within the template is that it wont be translated into the target language. One solution is simply to get the template translated - however this means that each time the sites' layout changes, the new templates need to be translated again. An alternate solution is to store the static text within the application, then use TMPL_VAR's to output the text - thus allowing lookup of the static, into the target language.
