What about them now? Some users are sticking to low ascii, other are 
using utf-8, and other use something else.

The ServerDefaultCharset CAPS setting would be only a tool for the 
administrator to change the global trend.

That's no silver bullet, and I am aware of this, but it's still an 
evolution that would allow for 'legal' utf-8 in the gopherspace (which 
is already de facto used by many), without making a revolution at the 
same time.
