Question about french translation and usage of accented character

Hello all,

What is recommanded to use :

- Wrote all native accented character
- Wrote with html entities like &eacute;

Current xml docbook files are supposed now to be encoded in UTF-8 (no 
more in iso-8859-1)

For example, and why I asked the question, about my recent commit on 
authors.xml (r 1.22)

I've wrote

<surname>Gesché</surname>

rather than

<surname>Gesch&eacute;</surname>

Is it a standard in such case or is it free to use both way ?
