in your description there is one point that makes your request that firefox should always do the right thing _without_ manual intervention void: you say "set View|Character Encoding to UTF-8" ... which is clearly a manual action and once you did that there is no real reason why firefox should not honour what you set. So, as long as you don't leave the no-manual action path everything will be fine. ONce you change it manual its ok to assume that you find that feature again to set it to auto again.
