How can someone select encoding when saving a file?

New save dialog:

You can choose the encoding in the status bar of Kwrite/Kate.

No, you can't.
It changes in what encoding a file is *shown*. It does not affect in what encoding a file is *saved*. I think it is a bug, or a forgotten feature. I've downgraded kate because of that(looks like only solution).
And there is the bug report I've reported about issue:

Should we report it upstream?

They have removed this option.

What is the new way to do so?

I reported it upstream.

I had reported also before you reported. Looks like they merged bugs.
