           Summary: [curl] Headers should be parsed as utf8 if possible
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore Misc.
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: galpeter at inf.u-szeged.hu


When the server returns the header data for the curl backend it is passed to be converted as a latin1 string. This is not always good.
For example there is a testcase which fails currently: http/tests/download/literal-utf-8.html.

The solution would be to process the input headers as utf8 strings. This solution in the libsoup backend.
