[whatwg] Charset meta sniffing and supported encodings that are not rough ASCII supersets

[Henri Sivonen]

The spec probably needs to be made more specific about the case where  
the ASCII byte-based algorithm finds a supported encoding name but  
the encoding is not a rough ASCII superset.

23:46 < othermaciej> one quirk in Safari is that if there's a meta  
tag claiming
                      the source is utf-16, we treat it as utf-8
...
23:48 < othermaciej> hsivonen: there is content that needs it
...
23:52 < othermaciej> hsivonen: I think we may treat any claimed  
unicode charset
                      in a <meta> tag as utf-8
