Currently persistent-mysql has utf8 hard coded for text values but that encoding is valid only for Basic Muplilanguage Plane, see e.g. https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/charset-unicode-utf8mb4.html
Shouldn't it be changed to utf8mb4 instead?
That would be not backwards compatible change so it should be properly announced I suppose.

Yeah, that seems better. I don't know how to deal with the backwards incompatibility though.
