FYI - I've taken out the charset declaration altogether for beta 3, 
since this is obviously an issue that needs more thought. Since 
Zope 2.4 will be the Python 2 (unicode) release, we should start 
a fishbowl project to work out how / whether Zope should deal with
charset issues for the 2.4 release...
