> Short term, we should change the HTTP proxy code to always use UTF-8 as the character set for converting remote content bytes to strings before returning them to clients.  We should do this ASAP to prevent anyone from becoming dependent on the current undefined behavior.
> Long term we might want to add some kind of character set detection, probably via the HTTP content-type header.  IE style charset content sniffing would probably not be a good idea.
