> Adding Encoding=UTF-8 to KDE's desktop files sounds like a good idea though.

either that, or a short comment at the beginning of the file like

; using utf-8

or some utf8 encoded string we can test against quickly when opening the 
file. 

the problem is that it is not backward compatible with KDE 2.0. 
I'd prefer a 

; this is braindead GNOME format 

comment though.
