New Comment:
You can achieve that by appending "//IGNORE" after the codeset name to
which the string is going to be converted.
For example:
<?php
$bar = iconv("UTF-8", "KOI-8R//IGNORE", $foo);
?>
Note that this is not portable since most of the iconv implementations
don't support it. As far as I know, only glibc's iconv can handle
this.

It will be very useful to have support for -c and -s options available
for iconv command-line tool as optional arguments for iconv()
function.
And also it will be specially useful for XML related code to have an
option to convert all unconvertable characters into numeric entities.
Thank you all for your job!
