Listing an author as Patrik Fältström is

From my POV it's better than F=84lttr=94m (858 QP) or
F=E4ltstr=F6m (1252 QP) or F=C3=A4ltstr=C3=B6m (UTF-8 QP).

With your proposal I'd see Fältström (intentionally
raw UTF-8 encoded in the Latin-1 subset of windows-1252).

Frank,

I'll make the following assumption: those who still use operating systems with no builtin support for UTF-8 are knowledgeable enough to run a text file - in particular if it has a UTF BOM - through GNU recode.
