I dont think this is a good move. Everyone will not read the
documentation. Almost nobody will. iso-8859-1 is the default per the
standard, and it is good to adhere to the standard. Changing it would just
create problems for the installed base, and those that would like to use
UTF-8 or other encodings they can just vconfigure it, as it has already
been possible for a number of years.
