With MySQL 4.1X using UTF-8 really messed up the column sizes because
it stores each UTF-8 character as 3 bytes (why not 2 I don't
know...). In other words, if you had a varchar of length 60 and put
in a 21 character UTF-8 string, it will overflow...
I don't know if this is still an issue with the 5 series of MySQL.

Hi -
Just curious...why does entityengine.xml set default character set
and collation for MySQL to latin1 instead of utf8?
