That's wishful thinking that doesn't match what has to happen ... the 
mime-sniffing document ALREADY is looking at the charset, by looking for 
byte-order-mark signatures to decide whether the content is text or binary.
So we're already doing charset detection, just not calling it that or 
completely specifying it.
