This totally makes sense, thank you.
Hum... cpdetector is half a megabyte, a wee bit too large.
However, the xml declaration is just one line, and I believe that one can
be read before reading the actual content.
Actually, see this one, it seems a parser can read the encoding if given
the right type of input:
