I had written a test codec for single byte character sets to evaluate
algorithms to use in CJKCodecs once before  (it's not a direct
implemention of you've mentioned, tough) I just ported it
to unicodeobject (as attached).  It showed relatively fine result
than charmap codecs:

% python ./Lib/timeit.py -s "s='a'*1024*1024; u=unicode(s)"
"s.decode('iso8859-1')"
10 loops, best of 3: 96.7 msec per loop
% ./python ./Lib/timeit.py -s "s='a'*1024*1024; u=unicode(s)"
"s.decode('iso8859_10_fc')"
10 loops, best of 3: 22.7 msec per loop
% ./python ./Lib/timeit.py -s "s='a'*1024*1024; u=unicode(s)"
"s.decode('utf-8')"
100 loops, best of 3: 18.9 msec per loop

(Note that it doesn't contain any documentation nor good error
handling yet. :-)
