Is there a plan to migrate all wikis to utf-8?
Yes, this will be done with the MediaWiki 1.5 upgrade which will happen in the next month or so.
at the very least it makes writing interwiki links a major pain. For now I seem to be able to just force my browser (Safari) to utf-8 long enough to type the interwiki links.
Try Firefox; it will automatically convert non-Latin1 characters to character reference entities when you post.
