<groan>, yes this can be done, in fact that used to be the case:
This was changed recently [2] because supposedly our modules are using utf-8
(instead of the default webmin-encodings).
Can anyone tell me conclusively:
- whether our modules use utf-8 or not?
- if they do use utf-8, does that go for the entire module or only for the
lang/XX files (with the config.info.XX files, and module.info using the
webmin default?)
- wether it is possible to autodetect the encoding used by a
module/different parts of a module? If so how?
The webmin documentation I've seen sofar is rather sparse on the subject
the only place I can find any mention about encodings is [3]. It says
their that there's a 'lang_list.txt'-file in the webmin root dir which
supposedly determines which encodings are used by webmin for which
languages (defaulting to iso-8859-1 if nothing specified).

I need to check but I think webmin-ldap-skolelinux was the only module
changed this way.
