6202	Generating HTML should not create tokens if it is not necessary	Michael G. Schneider		"With CKEditor 3.4...

Suppose you edit a page with fullPage=true containing a meta in the head having charset=utf-8.

Then if the body contains foreign characters (in my case German umlauts), they are changed into the corresponding tokens. For example ""a umlaut"" is changed to ""ampersand a uml semicolon"".

This is not necessary, as these characters can be used in UTF-8 directly.

It would be better if the umlauts survived an editing process with CKEditor, as the HTML source is harder to read afterwards.
