<![CDATA only affects the handling of two characters, < and & (making
them act as literal characters rather than as markup).

Even in a CDATA section, characters need to be correctly encoded.
Why can't you just use <?xml version="1.0" emcoding="cp-1252"?>
and encode the entire document in that encoding if you want to allow
easy editing with tools that are not utf8 aware?
