Finally I figured out howto set the header with dojo to request a specific 
charset. For those who are interested:

        var x = new dojo.io.FormBind({
            headers: { 'accept-charset': 'utf-8'},
            // reference the form
            formNode: dojo.byId('[% form.id %]'),
            preventCache: true,
            load: function(load, data, e) {
            // what to do when the form finishes
            // for example, populate a DIV:
                dojo.byId("[% form.id %]").disable=false;
                _container_.setContent(data);
            },
            error: function(type, err) {
                dojo.debug("Error during FormBind:" + err.message);
            }
        });

After defineing the accept-charset header the form setting still worked when 
changing the FF2 setting to an other encoding.

:D
