Perhaps that is the idea, but that idea is not described in above
new feature announcement. "... to reencode the message to UTF-8 
when displaying, if needed." would cover it, but perhaps better
would be to cover this in more detail: "reencode message to UTF-8
if i18n.commitencoding is not set to something other than UTF-8",
or "reencode ... to i18n.commitencoding ... if needed".
And what happens to the people who can't/won't display UTF-8? This is a
both a project wide configuration (how does stuff get saved) + a user/local
configuration (how to display stuff).
