Yes, XML/RPC works better, thank you. I created a Wiki page which
explains this in more detail, including a small Python sample. You can
find it here: http://wiki.horde.org/XmlRpcPythonHowTo

Yes, with XML/RPC, UTF-8 is correctly returned. I created a ticket
regarding the SOAP problems at http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/?id=5046 and
another ticket for a smaller problem I found with XML/RPC at
http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/?id=5047
