We shouldn't be telling those people that they have to upgrade to use Wikipedia if they can use Wikipedia just fine without UTF-8. The benefits simply do not seem to be at all compelling enough to justify the negatives (at least for en.wikipedia). But if you can figure out a way to have UTF-8 without the associated problems, then great.
What about transcoding data from utf-8 to latin-1 whern a non utf-8 compliant browser is detected? This way, people with this kind of browser may not even notice they are editing text in latin-1 which will be transcoded to utf-8 when the page is saved.
