Why FormParam doesn't accept characters with accent in a JAX-RS resource in EAP 6?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

We have a simple resource that receives a form parameter as String, for example:

@Path("/myresource")
public interface MyResource {   

    @POST   
    public Response paramTest(@FormParam("param") String param );
}

When submiting a parameter with accentuation, it sanitizes the parameter, for example "não" becomes "n", or the parameter has invalid characters. How can we prevent this?
