      Are there any chances to support UTF-8 as default encoding for web configurator and text data stored in config.xml (ie. alias descriptions)? Or maybe it is already available and just need to be enabled somewhere? :-) Now if I forgot about not using special characters in my descriptions they're being messed up.

        I do not think that will be done for 2.0.
        There is code to switch to another xmlreader/xmlwriter but might be somewhat behind in catching up.
        It brings speed and even UTF-8
