No. I made a proposal for it a long time ago, without much comments.

We need to fix this, since IAX2 now by spec is UTF8 too. In order to  
do it right we need to be
able to convert since PSTN Caller ID Names is *not* UTF8.

I started working on something for this in my Astum branch but got  
lost in libiconv.

Må så bra!
/O ;-)
