This is not that easy.

It is not configured anywhere that JFire projects are UTF-8. It may be configured for every project and even every file in Eclipse.

What we would need to have this feature is a product-wide default setting but we still have product facets which might use another encoding. This layer cannot be represented in Eclipse.

A possibility would be to save the default project character set in eclipse and check that settings file in. This would also allow developers to use project set files and not be dependent on our build system.

I will think about a product-setting but I am not sure whether doing it this way would be nice.
