Subject: encoding::warnings
Due to legacy issues with Latin-1 being the default encoding, lots of Perl code wrongly decodes UTF-8 bytestrings as Latin-1 when combining with Unicode character strings. This is all explained in detail in the encoding::warnings doc. Anyway, I've personally always felt that warning should be part of core and enabled by default. I think Modern::Perl is a good place for that. Cheers, Yuval
