New issue 4070 by [email protected]: Wrong dectected and saving character encoding when opening ISO-8859-1 js files in debugger
https://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=4070

Version: Chrome 42.0.2311.90 m
OS: Windows 7
Architecture: x64

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open developer console
2. Go to Sources tab and open a .js file you want to debug. The file must be encoded using IS0-8859-1 3. If you have "special characters" or accents in your file, they should be rendered as "?". 4. If the file is mapped to your filesystem and you save it, then it will be totally messed up and when you open it with your favourite editor or IDE (or even live, as I was, with the file open both in Chrome debugger and in Netbeans), the file will be permanently messed up, displaying garbagge every time an special character should appear.

I'm using Apache as webserver, and it is configured to properly send files as ISO-Latin-1 (AddDefaultCharset iso-8859-1); also Chrome is interpreting properly the file, when opened in a browse tab, with that encoding, and also is in Netbeans.

There should be a way to set the character encoding from the sources, either file by file or by folder and its descendents.

This bug renders live js editing and saving unreliable if using any non-English language.
