What would specifically be involved in rewriting the 
templates?

 -- changing the encoding in the document head (adding an xml 
prologue would be the most correct way of doing this, but this 
causes display problems in Internet Explorer.  The recommended 
method at present is to use <meta http-equiv="Content-
Type"...>)

 -- altering the encoding of some characters in the templates? 
 I wonder if this affects the English templates?

What else?

If you were using tidy to clean up templates, you'd have to 
configure it to only alter the character encoding, and not 
touch the document structure, right?
