About MySQL non-UTF8 Encoding support like latin1 or GBK

[myonlylonely]

Does redash support non-UTF8 encoding in MYSQL?
I have a MySQL database in latin1, I have to use CONVERT(CAST(character_name AS BINARY) USING gbk) to convert every string field to display string correctly. There are too many string fields, so it is a little bit of annoyed.
Would Redash consider supporting a config or settings in data source page to let user choose which encoding should Redash use? Or is there any more appropriate workaround or solution?
