Yes. Its entirely Zopes job. And if you are using pure Zope, you need
to set the header in the publish process, e.g. with a python script
or something you use for default display. Also you need to set a
property manage_page_charset in zopes root to be able to use that
encoding in ZMI too. This way you arent storing unicode - only utf-8
as you want to display it.
