I was thinking more about this. It seems clear that we want the backend that issues the notify to only put 7-bit ASCII in the payload. But if the client sends the letters 'string' as a payload, and the representation in the server encoding is something other than the normal 7-bit ASCII representation of 'string', it will be incorrect, right? Looking at the documentation, it appears that all of the server encodings represent 7-bit ascii characters using the same 7-bit ascii representation. Is that true?
