Our request parser has these comments that should be taken into account for parsing the request (ktor follows the RFCs strictly instead of just defaulting to UTF-8 when doing receiveText):

``` override suspend fun parseRequest(request: ApplicationRequest): GraphQLServerRequest = try {

withContext(Dispatchers.IO) {

// Ktor receiveText uses the rules for plain text, and the default encoding for plain text is ISO-8859-1:

// https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7231#appendix-B

// https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8259.html#section-8.1

// https://stackoverflow.com/a/49552784/430128

// instead -- receive the data as a stream and default to UTF-8

val reader = request.call.receiveStream().reader(request.contentCharset() ?: Charsets.UTF_8)

mapper.readValue(reader, GraphQLServerRequest::class.java)

}

} catch (e: IOException) {

throw IOException("Unable to parse GraphQL payload.", e)

}```

looks like a nice enhancement -> i'm just using receiveText()

do you mind opening up an issue (or even better PR) to track it/fix it?
