While I was editing my override of app.html in a project, I noticed that using a string like Loading … leads to it being displayed as Loading â¦, which is of course wrong.
The reason for that is that the base template doesn’t specify the character set, therefore the browser defaults to ISO-8859-1. This change fixes that.
It will break the encoding for users that are using legacy 8-bit charsets in their string outputs, but in 2019, I don’t see a reason to encourage that.
