Default encoding of OctetString
See original GitHub issueHi!
The default defined encoding of a univ.OctetString seems to be ISO-8859-1 (see the code here). I was wondering why this choice was made, instead of something more universal, like UTF8?
This default encoding is causing some weird behavior in some programs relying on this library (see here or here).
Is it possible to change the default encoding to UTF8? If not, why not, and what do you suggest we can do to ensure proper encoding in our programs?
Thanks!

Hi, this is actually important because pyasn1 is buried in the dep chain for CrackMapExec, which in turn needs pywerview.
There are a whole bunch of people that depend on this to work as expected.
It should be noted, UTF-8 is the now favored internationalization standard. Please switch to this.
Up, any info regarding this issue? Thanks!
