Yes, I've still to test whether setting the HTML page charset to utf8 causes typed input to be utf8.
I really hope it does...

    Well, depending on the language involved, keyboarding could be a serious and unavoidable problem... I don't have a clue what browsers do in terms of supporting i18n at the keyboard.

    Even doing a copy/paste of text that has been composed/displayed in some other app/window could be dicey -- I haven't been there or done that enough times, using anything besides English, to be confident about it.
