Search for "htmlentities charset". Both myself and thies (and probably others
were discussing this).
In short: there are many, many, many people who have scripts that rely
on htmlentities defaulting to iso-8859-1 (the documented default for ever).

This is a separate issue and nothing to do with changing the behaviour of
htmlentities().
