Yes, at the very least, it should suggest utf-8 and provide that as the default value. Only in a separate paragraph should it say that you can instead use any of the following instead... Make it simple to understand that utf-8 solves the problem, and make it simple to choose utf-8. You might even want to make it a 3-way decision: (1) Yes, convert to utf-8, (2) No, don't save, (3) Convert to an alternative encoding.
