I beg to differ. Silently doing such an unexpected change is guaranteed to
confuse the user, especially as she starts exchanging the files or loading
in other programs. The interface should warn the user and offer a couple
sensible choices, one of them (and maybe the default) being to save using
one of the UTFs.
