In hindsight we should probably not have invented per-database encoding
selection, since it's so fragile to use in combination with cluster-wide
locale settings. However I believe that a lot of people in the Far East
are using multiple database encodings successfully, since they don't
much care about upper()/lower() etc ...
The long-term answer is to write our own locale support so we can
eliminate the cluster-wide-locale restriction. In the meantime I don't
want to remove flexibility that is useful to some people.
