Certainly, the specification doesn't help in this regard. I'm
disappointed that things like this never get fixed in specifications.
This question comes up all the time, and the solution is almost always
to simply pick a charset and use it all the time, without question. But
that's messy, and doesn't allow the client to make any choices about
character encoding, etc. :(
