Presumably, if you have editors throwing in BOM marks without asking,
you have an environment where either

a) You can set the client encoding to UTF8 in the environment, so it
applies by default, or

b) The server encoding is UTF8, so the client encoding will default to
that.

Together, that should cover a lot of cases.  Not perfect, but far from
useless.
