Dear Andreas,
wxWindows includes an mbconv class to convert text into/from UTF-8:

It seems that wxWindows supports all encodings. It would allow pgAdmin3 to map
PostgreSQL encoding, without data stream conversion (without set
client_encoding = foo). Example:
- PostgreSQL server : KOI8-R (old russian encoding supported by PostgreSQL)
- Client encoding : KOI8-R
- pgAdmin3 : strings are converted in UTF-8 at display time.
The world is marvelous, don't you think?
Cheers, Jean-Michel
