The behavior you are seeing is intentional. WebClient doesn't interpret 
the content of a response. It simply gives you the bytes that you can 
deal with in any way you see fit. That includes dealing with encodings.

They are UTF-8 encoded just as the content type implies.

Yes, you need to decode the input. You can for example use the method 
#utf8ToSqueak to decode the string into UTF-8.
