Why? It's not like Rails supports Japanese or Chinese encodings out  
of the box now. How is going from supporting just ASCII to supporting  
UTF-8 taking anything away from Japanese or Chinese railers?

Like David said, what exactly is the downside to default UTF-8  
support? Who does it hurt, how, and why?
