outputformat=shape-zip generates shapefiles with utf-8 encoding
---------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-3523
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3523
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Bug
Components: WFS
Affects Versions: 2.0-RC1
Reporter: Andreas Hocevar
Assignee: Andrea Aime
When requesting features as shapefile, the shapefile is encoded in utf-8. This is quite unusual, because the shapefile format cannot handle 2-byte characters properly.
The expected behavior would be to use a default output format that does not produce 2-byte characters, like iso-8859-1.
