Greetings,
I've been having some discussions with the mod_perl developers about
preserving the utf8 flag on Perl strings in various operations. These
include escape_html(), which seems to remove the utf8 flag (or at least
to totally hork a string with the flag turned on), and APR::Table. I
would be grateful for any feedback from folks on how best to handle
these issues. The relevant discussions are archived here:
I report the escape_html() issue:

I request that the issue be addressed in Apache 2's escape_html():

Boris Zentner requests that utf8 be preserved by APR::Table:

Thanks!
