Any thoughts? Restricting sbml+xml to a UTF-8 encoding would certainly be simple, imposing no new requirements on SBML-consuming tools. But would this go against the grain of the relevant RFCs and future evolvability?

I think this would be just fine for a start. If it turns out there's demands for other formats, you could wire that in later, but at the moment this seems like a sensibly minimalist approach.
