Encoding an attachment as ANSI

Hi,

I need to encode an attachment in ANSI format.
I thought this will work:
Attachment att = new Attachment (
            ParentId = parentObjectId,
            Name = fileName,
            Body = Blob.valueOf(body),
            ContentType = 'text/plain; charset=ansi'
        );

But when I download the attachment it was still UTF-8.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Yishay

I'll really appreciate some comment from the SFDC development team, I can't find any documentation about this.
Thanks,
Yishay

This is a problem we are also having in our Org!
Can you please help?
Thank you!

The lack of ability to use ANSI encoding (i.e. remove special chars from UTF-8 string) is a problem here as well.
