Hrm - has anyone had any experience with this? Is there a format that supports both?

UTF-8 is fully "supporting" ANSI. UTF-8 is only supporting special charsets as enhancement in comparison to ANSI. So UTF-8 will always be ANSI compatible, just UTF-8 Charsets won't work when saved in ANSI.
The problem with corrupted translation files only should occur if someone opens the file with an non UTF-8 compatible Editor, as then the special chars like
etc. might get replaced etc.
So, too sumarize it, if the file is edited with an UTF-8 compatible Editor and is saved in UTF-8, there can't be any problems related to ANSI.
