Description
It'd be nice if IDEs were able to automatically set proper source encoding when attaching sources to project dependencies.
In eclipse/m2e, we tried to automatically detect encoding but it didn't work out https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/116390/
A more reliable way would be to ensure the encoding info was stored inside the source archive, so that IDEs could peek into it and ensure proper settings.
