Hmm, for some reason this morning the Matrix has allowed the

doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me now.

The scalars still do not have the utf8 flag set, though.

This is really weird. All the characters display correctly in
the browser now EXCEPT what used to be a generic apostrophe,
which now comes across as this non-printable character:

U+0092 <control>

Unicode category: Other, Control

UTF-8: 0xC2 0x92

But this displays fine in mysql console on my terminal.

Argh.
