Client encoding is A, server encoding is B. Client sends an xml datum

Assuming that A, B, and C are all distinct, this could fail at a number
of places.
I suggest that we make the system ignore all encoding declarations in
xml data. That is, in the above example, the string would actually
have to be encoded in client encoding B on the client, would be
converted to A on the server and stored as such. As far as I can tell,
this is easily implemented and allowed by the XML standard.
In other words, in case when B != C server must trigger an error, right?
