I agree that having everything in UTF-8 would be great, but indeed as 
Christian pointed out, it would represent a BC break. And AFAIK PHP 
doesn't deal with Unicode well yet, so probably it's not a good idea to 
push users to use UTF-8, when PHP itself is not ready for it.

IMHO, it's a good idea.
