Just my $0.02: I choose the opposite, upgrade everything to UTF8 ;-)

I second you on that, working with Unicode content is a mess, but
anyway, rather than having to deal with a myriad of encodings, I always
choose Unicode... working harder (obviously) on getting "data" upgraded
to Unicode (Encode::Detect is a useful helper _usually_).
For upgrading to Unicode there is a nifty solution for Mason components:
using "preamble" parameter appropriately:
my $ah = new ...Handler->new(
...
preamble => qq{use encoding 'utf8';\n},
...
);
Back on topic, my guess is that something similar ("preamble"), with
opposite effect could be used here too, maybe exactly what John
proposed, but I really doubt this would be a complete fix (dumb example:
<% 'some upgraded string' x 8 %>).
