It is not used as an output or font-encoding; latin1 is used as
input-encoding.

That's why I do not understand how you can use TeX input encoding, I
do not think it make any sense.  TeX input incodin would be 'ascii' +
anything you select.  latin1 would be a sensible TeX input encoding.

I want to first document everything about these encodings, to get
better understanding, because it seems we need some fixes or a rewrite
here.
