Guillaume,
I think the interest of "making it mandatory" is to write the necessary code to
assert that it is ok and fail to start otherwise. E.g. write to the DB, clean any cache,
then check the read is consistent (i generally use the lambda letter for this).
Although PostgreSQL might make it default, it will not be the case of older Postgres some
of which we may still support.

in that case, we
_only_ need to check the "environment", which means every supported
database and containers, and maybe the system language, not sure it matters
btw.
I can take care of such a documentation if you want. I've heard that
postgreSQL uses utf-8 by default, but need to study it anyway.
