Firebird and UTF8 Fields

Hi All.

I have just started using FB v.2.x with UTF8 chars.
what i want to ask is this:
selecting a utf8 field with a ZQuery shouldn't the returned fieldtype be WideString?
Now Zeos returns a stringtype field and i have to do myself the utf8 to widestring convertion. Is this normal?

thanks in advance for any reply/help

Delphi7, FB 2.0.3 and 2.1.1, Zeoslib 6.6.2-RC
