By the way, 'git send-email --compose' does not add MIME headers to 
introductory message. All non-Ascii chars will output something 
undefined in receivers' end.

I guess the right way would be to detect user's charset (locale) and add 
appropriate MIME headers. Also, the Subject field should be encoded if 
it contains non-Ascii characters.
