Yeah, migrating an old setup to utf8 is a bit of a pain! I had to do a site conversion for someone recently, as we wanted to go "full utf8"... but it requires quite a lot of tweaks to existing tables (due to data lengths etc). Its worth it in the end though! (the templates were also a bit tricky to get working properly with utf8 versions)
