decodingFilter should be enabled by default

Description

The CherryPy? decodeFilter isn't enabled by default in TurboGears? This gave me fits on a project recently, and once I found the solution, I was puzzled why this isn't on by default. Kid assumes UTF-8, and most browsers submit UTF-8, so it seems like this should be on in the [global] section as follows:

decodingFilter.on = True decodingFilter.encoding = "utf8"

It solves a host of problems that manifest themselves with odd encoding errors, malformed strings stored in the database, and other odd problems.
