Could this have been only about trying to decode the external
resources as UTF-16 vs. trying to decode them using any ASCII
superset encoding?
It's possible. It's been a while since I last looked at this code...
By looking at CVS blame a second time, I found only
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=255820 where the key
thing seems to be avoiding UTF-16 and not so much letting the meta
have an effect
That's the bug I was largely thinking of, yes.
So maybe we're ok with UTF-8.
