Okay, I also think that is a good idea (especially for multi-language
sites), but I think there are many old browsers that don't support UTF-8
documents... Does anyone have info/experience on this issue?

BTW I don't believe that UTF-8 page is *significant* larger - most of the
characters (e.g. HTML code) are still represented with one byte.

And what's about images? HTML document usually contains many images and I
suppose that impact on the traffic won't be so serious.

Please, let me know if I'm wrong.
