I'd rather have my filenames left as is.
I believe some script built to perform the "migration" from old encoding to new 
utf-8 might be a better alternative.
I have some filenames living here from koi8-r era of my linux installation and 
doing iconv-things is not user-friendly.
Maybe a cmdline app and GUI for it for those that have no idea why some files 
they have are invalid. 

But the first thing to do in this case is to notify the user that not
all of his files can be synced. Skipping that silently/writing a warning
to log only will cause more bug reports about incomplete syncing.
