In my testing, it appears that IE 7 and Firefox 2 do treat GBK as

Yep, I missed that point in my previous post, my fault. Yes, they
should be treated differently. So I guess my request should be changed
to only treat GB2312 as GBK.
According to source code[1], WebKit trunk also changes GB_2312-80 to
GBK. Gecko aliases gb_2312-80 to GB2312 (due to FrontPage output
according to source comment).
Also, WebKit changes KS_C_5601-1987 and EUC-KR to windows-949-2000.
Gecko aliases[2] KS_C_5601-1987 to x-windows-949 (due to FrontPage
output according to source comment). However, Gecko doesn't use its
alias mechanism to alias EUC-KR to windows-949. I haven't tested if
EUC-KR is treated equivalently to windows-949 by other means.
Yet another weird alias tidbit supported both by Gecko and WebKit
source as well as Googling the subject:
Looks like x-x-big5 needs to be an alias for Big5 due to FrontPage
output.
