Public bug reported: The file is saved in utf-8 even though I select iso-8859-1 as encoding when saving. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a new file with non-ascii content, eg.: "çéè" (without quotes) 2. In the save dialog, select iso-8859-1 encoding 2. Check file size: it should be 3 bytes, but it is 7. Hexdump: 00000000 c3 a7 c3 a9 c3 a8 0a |.......| 00000007
For instance, c3 a7 is the utf-8 encoding of "ç". The iso-8859-1 encoding of this char is the single byte e7.
