UTF-8 encoding and http parameters

I am making a simple ajax call with YahooUI Javascript library as follows:

YAHOO.util.Connect.setForm('myform');
YAHOO.util.Connect.asyncRequest('POST', url, ...);

Below are the settings in my application: Tomcat version: 6.0.18

Tomcat Server Connector: URIEncoding = "UTF-8" Webpage:

Also listed in the YahooUI Connector Library documentation:

setForm will encode each HTML form field name and value using encodeURIComponent. This results in a UTF-8 encoding string, name-value pairs. NOTE. Setting the HTTP header "Content-Type" with a different encoding value will not change the encoding of serialized data.encoding of serialized data.

I see that the French characters that are sent as parameters are encoded (in ie7 using the iehttpheader utility):

    name=%C3%88%C3%A0%C3%B4 
    testParam=%C3%B4%C3%B4

For data: name: ààô and testParam: "

UPDATE: UTF-8, W3.org http://www.w3.org/International/O-URL-code.html, . , Tomcat ?
