[jetty-dev] Using UTF-8 instead of ISO-8859-1 encoding

Hi, 

everywhere across the project we're using the ISO-8859-1 encoding.

e.g. 
WEB-INF/jetty-web.xml: 
<?xml version="1.0"  encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
HttpURITest: 
String s = URLEncoder.encode(url, "ISO-8859-1");

jetty-web.xml is also exposed to project setups of which most (> 90%?) projects are based upon and rely on UTF-8. So the ISO-8859-1 encoding token looks like a really odd artifact. How about uniformly switching the entire codebase with its > 200 occurrences over to using UTF-8 instead? I could provide a corresponding patch.
