I like to point out that this statement is not true.
Encoding of attribute values depends on its syntax,
sometimes dependent on transfer options.  Some textual
string are not UTF-8 encoded Unicode (in real world
directories).

Also, the API has generally no clue as to the syntax of
values transferred... making transcoding at the API level
quite problematic.
