as far as I can say, you just can't do anything about that. The HTTP
protocol requires that URL are encoded with 7bit characters.
You add Charset directives so that the content of your documents is
interpreted correctly by the http client (and then, if a link aim at a
file name with caracters belonging to this particular charset, the link
will be correctly followed by the client).
You can't change HTTP protocol via charset directives, so the name of
the file is encoded.
