Windows in general, and Excel in particular seem to expect the BOM (byte-order-mark) in utf-8 encoded files. The consequence is that for CSV files exported by us, Excel does not correctly identify the character encoding and shows international characters garbled. We should provide an option for exporting CSV files into UTF-8 with BOM.
