If I understand this correctly you want to start migrating as soon as
there is no "coding:" tag in the file. I don't think that is a good
idea, because there are other ways of telling emacs the coding system
you want for files. E.g., I have used the following for a long time,
on several large sites with many users, and it has worked very well:
;;; Avoid BBDB getting confused by 8 bit characters:
(if (>= emacs-major-version 20)
(add-to-list 'file-coding-system-alist
'("/\\.bbdb\\'" iso-8859-1 . iso-8859-1)))
I'm not sure I would like it if all my users would be auto-migrated to
emacs-mule... ;-)
