[Glass] REST service and accented strings

[Richard Sargent via Glass]

I think the encoding is the problem.

ISO/IEC 8859-1:1998, Information technology — 8-bit single-byte coded
graphic character sets — Part 1: Latin alphabet No. 1

But you are receiving what appears to be UTF-8. I'm no expert in this area,
but I suspect that if you tell it the encoding is UTF-8, the web server
will decode it for you. 8859-1 basically says (I think) to leave every
8-bit byte alone.
