Does anyone have experience with using the the "accept-charset"
attribute on FORMs?
<http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/forms.html#adef-accept-charset>http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/forms.html#adef-accept-charset
I read this, but I am not sure what the net result is:
"The client must interpret this list as an exclusive-or list, i.e.,
the server is able to accept any single character encoding per
entity received."
So guess it's not solving the initial question, but might be part of
the solution...?

As I understand it, all it's doing is establishing what char-sets are
required for the form.
Not that this is a definitive or totally correct answer, but a
char-set contain the glyphs for rendering the characters (code
points) contain within that set.
Like Basic Latin contains the glyphs sufficient to render the code
points for English (like your email application). If your form is in
Hebrew, you can't expect the browser to render Hebrew glyphs in the
form properly unless your browser has that char-set installed or
knows that's what required.
It's just a way to get everyone in sync with rendering the same glyphs.
