Comment(by demetris):

 @hakre:

 1.  If a file only has single-byte characters from 0 to 127 and does not
 have a BOM, how does your tool determine it is UTF-8?

 2.  WordPress spends resources to run everything on the front-end through
 a typography filter, and you are saying we don’t need this in the back-
 end, where it is done simply by hard-coded HTML?
