If you need to read them frequently, yes. Otherwise, if this is just one-off, maybe user can download the page source, extract text content, paste into text editor and select encoding? Do you have an example CJK site I may try?

I rarely need to do that, so I cannot find an example for the moment. It is usually a one-off thing, then yes I could do the conversion manually, but it was obviously an usability degraded.
