Comment(by hakre):

 about converting UTF8 into UTF8: It might look a bit akward at first but I
 know about that principle from programming and it often works well. When I
 remember correctly there is actually an encoding in the iconv lib that is
 for converting "utf8 into utf8" so to validate / ensure that a "hey I
 guess it's utf8" afterwards definetly is utf8. But right now I do not
 remember in which PHP code I've seen that. But I'm pretty shure it exists.
