They are AFAIC not uncommon. 80% of the messages I see are affeeted. A further 10% are 
not because I have set the character set to isolatin1 for these users. Thus the chat looks like 
kopete has flipped. It is better to say nothing than littering the chat log with warnings. This risk 
of misinterpretations of the message due to the wrong charset is very small. Alternatve the 
warning could be show the first time a user's message causes a problem, or it could be the 
same line as the "message from".

Although I suggested it, I thiink "smart" heuristics here can outsmart itself..  On the other hand 
a "per" topic or per  server setting is the best approach. People tend to use the same character 
set in IRC chats and they will get it right after one or two tries.
