4880 says that everything should be UTF-8. However, the reality is that
UTF8 is not used everywhere and there are lots of clients that compose
messages in their native preferred character set (Latin5, Greek, Kanji,
etc)
But a conforming OpenPGP implementation should convert this to UTF-8 before
encrypt/sign if using text packets.
