Shouldn't there be a way to override the file encoding from inside the
file? Over in C-land we've been kicking around the idea of
#pragma GCC charset "UTF-8"
as the first line of the file, and/or recognizing Mule magic comments.
[Naturally these have to be expressed in 7-bit ASCII.] I don't know
what Java's equivalent of #pragma is, but there must be something...
