I have an applicaiton where I''m indexing content in a number of languages, all encoded in UTF8. I would think that having my locale set to en_US.utf8 would be sufficient to make this work in ferret/acts_as_ferret, but I keep running into problems, even with english text. What have others done to cope with these encoding difficulties? -ryan

For example, I have a Post model with title, content, and user_id as attributes, and I want users to be able to search through their own posts only.
