[sane-devel] Encoding of backend translations

[mh]

Hi,
I'd just like to ask, whether it would be a problem to use UFT8 encoding for 
the backend translations?
Reason:
The KDE i18n framework has been switched to UTF8; .mo files generated from 
.po files encoded e.g. in iso-8859-1 are not displayed correctly (missing 
"Umlaute"/vowel mutations). 
As far as I know, this wouldn't affect xsane (Oliver?), but would make access 
to the backend translations much easier for KDE applications.

Comments, please...
