An example for a Central European character (ä). e.g. http://server/ä

The second encoding is also UTF-8, but for a different (decomposed) form of
Unicode. In UTF-16, the same would be U+0061 U+0308. U+0061 is 'a', and U+0308
is a combining umlaut, ̈. You may want to spend some time with a freeware
utility UnicodeChecker (http://earthlingsoft.net) - IMO it's the best way to
get acquainted with the basics of Unicode.
A good HTTP/WebDAV server should accept any form of Unicode, of course.
