Its more of a feature but I dont know enough about this. I am told that Exif 
does not specify the encoding and ASCII is the most common one. However, for 
some reason which I do not remember anymore, we use UTF-8 for Jpeg JFIF 
comments. If you can find out any information about how the encoding is 
specified for Exif metadata, please file a bug and we will try to resolve 
this.
