Yes, and for database also.

What I was proposing is to define a standard charset for connection 
(UTF8?), for querying DB charset and dialect, and then auto-set these 
parameters.
Havent tried, but what happens if I use dialect 3 connection over a 
dialect 1 DB? Or cyrillic connection charset on a chinese DB?
