Users can still override the template engine's encoding with the 'file_charset' option. For static files, without imposing it, we're back to the third-party app concern. Just like DEFAULT_CHARSET, it would difficult to change FILE_CHARSET _and_ integrate third party apps. The third party apps have likely encoded their static files using UTF-8, so setting FILE_CHARSET to some other value will break.
