Use utf-8 in mason templates

RT Developers

Dear RT hackers,

each time I have to match on some values with non-ascii chars in a mason
template/callback, I have to add “use utf8;” in init block.

Is there a way to make it the default for all mason components?

I stumbled over this today, there is a bug open for this (over 3 years old):
