Again: If you open a file with the wrong encoding that's your fault. That "but report" can be submitted to every project out there, and they'll close it just like this. If you want to take care of making sure all files have the same encoding I can track it as feature request and assign you to it though.

There is no such thing as opening with wrong encoding
Unfortunately you don't seem to realize that your computer is set with western european settings,
and you think the whole world is set with those.
Believe me, it's not like that in reality
Same is valid for teletext and regional settings on tv

There is. I can select in my IDE which encoding the file has. If I select the wrong one the file is messed up, but that's entirely my fault then. If your IDE doesn't allow setting the encoding you should contact the support from your IDE and raise it as feature request/bug report there. Good IDEs even detect it automatically in most cases.
I'm not going to argue about this with you, if you want to change it feel free to submit a PR.
