I also think it is not a good idea to regenerate all pages now.
A part of the reason is that it is too heavy, but another part of
the reason is that the solution is not very good yet.  In future,
when MHonArc can handle all popular encodings and convert them
into UTF-8, and when it can handle raw 8bit headers by some intelligent
way, we may think about regenerate all pages by a very low priority
background task.
