Well, modulo character encoding issues, that is. An FF will
look differently in UTF-16 than in ASCII-based encodings.
Depends on whether you specify a single encoding for all entries
at the HTTP level or not. For this application, I would do just
that, in which case, as a bonus, non-UTF-8 streams would get to
avoid resending the XML preamble over and over and over.

Of course, if you do that, you won't be able to keep signatures for entries originally published in an encoding other than the one you've chosen.

If one were to want to signal an encoding change mid-stream, how might that work with what's been proposed thus far?
