Marc, I am afraid it's the way it is : XT XML output method is only supporting utf-8 as documented on XT main page... Note that the XML document is strictly equivalent. The HTML method, by contrast is supporting other encodings (ISO-8859-1) and is also transforming special characters into entity references which have a predefined meaning for HTML but none for XML in general. If it's really blocking for you, I can provide you with a special XML Output Handler supporting other encodings (which is not exactly what you mean).
