He should at least be given the byte values -- after all he's not the one
"creating" the group so much as the first one to get the control message
(theoretically speaking, if I understand things correctly the reality is a

Which in this case would be: dk.test.utf8- C3 A6 C3 B8 C3 A5
(spaces added for readability purposes only).
