Look closer at .jeff's solution. I am not a CF programmer, but if I am
reading things right, the solution is rather impressive.

He is making the GET server-side, yes. But he is taking the content of
the response and assigning it to a variable, which you can then make
the value of the cookie you set from CF.

It will be interesting to see if this actually gets around your
encoding problem or not.
