I think it'd be enough for Koha to ignore (or even understand) the BOM. No reason for it to be syspref controlled if you can make it do the right thing. It _might_ even be enough to tell it to open the file as UTF-8.
I agree -- Koha should just Do The Right Thing. At first glance, it looks like File::BOM might be useful, though we should think about whether we want to support arbitrary character encodings.
