When you are looking for a *new* name for that encoding, why don't you just adopt the pythonese precedent
mysql-latin1 ? It is as good or as bad as any other name, but has some footing just now.

It's up to you I suppose, but "whatwg-1252" just seems like long term
it will lose its meaning. For the web "windows-1252" will always have
this meaning due to deployed content, so "web-windows-1252" if you
need to disambiguate from a different implementation of windows-1252
makes sense to me.
