Hi,

There is known problem with form parameters encoding and servlets. When you
have utf-8 HTML page with forms, you get back the parameters in utf-8, but
the servlet doesn't know, that the page was rendered in utf-8 and interprets
the parameters in different encoding (don't know exactly which one). You can
fix the problem with servlet filter show bellow (code is from Tomcat I
suppose). I think that Wicket should include the filter in its distribution.
What do you think?
