Well, I can't boast deep understanding of Tomcat internals, and this filter was
probably intended for something different (for some more delicate tuning?), but
this trick with filter definitely works for me in all aspects including persistence.

With this filter enabled:
- I can enter descriptions in any combination of languages (English / Russian /
Chinese / whatever);
- descriptions survive non-distorted during the engine life cycle;
- description are persisted in tomcat-users.xml using correct UTF-8;
- descriptions are correctly initialized after engine being restarted.

Totally I have no grudge against multi-language descriptions persistence with
this filter. All this behaves well with both IE6 and Firefox. I use TC 5.0.28 on
Windows.

The two problems in the distribution are:
- the filter is disabled by default;
- the filter class name in admin app's web.xml is reduced to two last segments
('filters.SetCharacterEncodingFilter'); it works well if TC is installed from
.zip distribution, but if installed using .exe distribution the filter name
needs to be written in full -
'org.apache.webapp.admin.filters.SetCharacterEncodingFilter' - I did not manage
to investigate why...
