I never answered this, so here I go. I'd be happier if it was
formulated more like a recommendation (a strong one if you
like) to use UTF-8 whereever the encoding was unclear. As the
patch is written it seems like an error to not use UTF-8.

In particular this snippet is bad: "Clients and servers must
send UTF-8 strings". "Must" is just way too strong.

I also think the second hunk of the patch should be left out
so that the string encoding is left unspecified and thus falls
back to the new "String Encodings" section (which of course
recommends UTF-8).

Cheers,
Peter
