Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> added the comment:

The mailman-us...@python.org list received a post with the From: header 
containing a Hebrew display name RFC 2047 encoded with the iso-8859-8-i charset 
which threw a LookupError: unknown encoding: iso-8859-8-i exception in 
processing and shunted the message. The message body also had the charset 
declared as iso-8859-8-i although it contained only ascii. Unfortunately, I 
don't have the original message so I can't say what MUA created it or how 
common this usage is.

I do think that just adding these as aliases for the non-annotated encodings is 
an appropriate response.
