FWIW: Mark Davis was happy to show that UTF-8 is now the most common web encoding. http://www.w3.org/QA/2008/05/utf8-web-growth.html Sure, web isn't mail, but it does reflect a general trend.

That's because the web server implementations moved to using UTF-8 as the default. It went unnoticed as the web browsers support it. There are problems such as when non-UTF-8 content is served as UTF-8. In the mail world, it's the reverse; UTF-8 content rendered as non-UTF-8 by legacy MUAs.
