Description

While using webtools XML data import feature to import a file containing this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<entity-engine-xml>
<ElectronicText dataResourceId="ERRORE">
<textData>perchè dà errore?</textData>
</ElectronicText>
<entity-engine-xml>

the following error if given:
ERROR: Error parsing entity xml file: java.io.CharConversionException: Invalid UTF-8 Encoding

The same happens if the import textbox is used

I have found this subject recurring many time in the mailing lists archive but never with a conclusion (AFAIK).
May be a related issue that could help to fix this is: OFBIZ-1083 where a similar problem was fixed for emails.
