      Currently the driver calls java.lang.String#String(byte[], int, int, java.lang.String) to decode UTF-8 byte arrays, but this method silently replaces invalid UTF-8 byte sequences with a replacement character.

      The driver should instead use CharsetDecoder directly so that an exception can be thrown instead.
