That's just silly. The character encoding has very little to do with 
allowing entities. As far as I know,   is an HTML entity that is 
not defined for XML; thus, you can only use it in (X)HTML documents that 
  reference the appropriate DOCTYPE and/or DTD. Otherwise, you could 
probably use a numeric character reference like  .
