Well, my index_html produces a plain string with 8bit characters. 
(I've verified this by trying to add u'' to it, and got an exception)

Now in some cases ZPublisher adds the UTF-8 content-type and some it
don't. Directly calling (via browser) index_html does not mark the
content as UTF-8. return context.index_html(context,request) marks the
content up as UTF-8 although index_html does return a plain old string.
And it does nothing to recode the string in UTF-8, ...
