That's trivial to solve. Don't add a BOM to your file and use:

{%encoding utf-8}

(By the way, is this supported? I don't see this option in the wiki article)

This way both the IDE and the Compiler will ignore your encoding, and
no conversion takes place. On the bad side, you also won't be able to
edit non-utf-8 strings in the editor, but it's always impossible to
edit more then one encoding at the same time.

About asking for each string, I think this would be a inviable solution.
