I don't really think it's worth spending cycles on this anytime soon. It makes
sense to put the effort in to replace invalid "characters" in a minimal way
when intending to actually use the "stripped" output permanently. But all
we're trying to do here is to a) ensure that the backend will error out b)
reduce the chances that other tooling (psql, xml parsers, ..) get confused due
to invalidly encoded data.
