Description

According to the user poll about the default file encoding, the inputEncoding should default to the platform default encoding instead of Latin-1. Since that would be a breaking change it is left to users to vote for this issue if they feelt it's worth to have it like that.

If the change is made, we should have the plugin output a warning when using the platform encoding.
