Ah. I tried using that to send text in a somewhat more widely used 
charset (like windows-1252), but I got pilloried for using a 
Microsoft-specific charset rather than a "standard" one. If you have a 
suggestion of a standard, widely supported charset to use that has the 
correct characters, I'm all ears.

What makes you describe that feature as a kludge?
