Ok, I did just that. So far, I had to override text:,
textInputWithValue:callback:, title: and
valueInputOfType:value:callBack:.

The last one made me think of another method: what about adding two
class methods "externalizeString:" and "internalizeString:" to
WAHtmlRenderer? They would return their argument by default, and could
be overriden with "arg squeakToIso" or "arg isoToSqueak" in a
subclass. Likewise, they could be overriden to do utf-8 handling and
so on. Would you accept such a patch?
