Also, watcha out for the gotcha in BaseResponse.py, which can end up
doing a default encoding to latin-1 in some circumstances.
I really want to make that hard coded thing configurable in zope.conf at
some stage...

I see... And what python function would you use for conversion ?
I made some tests and was surprised of the results...
I switched ZMI to UTF-8 (management_page_charset) and edited some of my
documents / properties and all went fine.
The generated documents are still sent to browsers as iso-8859-1, and are
not broken.
So my question would be : which valid UTF-8 characters (for typical Western
languages like English, French, Spanish, ...) would be invalid in iso-8859-1
?
Last thing, if ZMI is switched to UTF-8, then what is the difference between
ustring/string, etc properties ?
Thanks.

Hi,
I have been running a Zope installation for 2 years, so there are now lots
of objects, properties, etc...
I would like to know what are the possible issues I may have to face if I
change the default encoding for iso-8859-1 to utf-8 in ZMI.
You must write a script that converts any property on any object in your
site that is latin-1 to utf-8.
So first find all objects you use. See what types they are.
Find all text and string attributes on those opjects.
Write a function that converts from latin to utf and run that on every
object.
The hard part will be finding all the attributes, but perhaps you can
write a method that can help find those properties for you using
introspection.
