Can we get away with not following Content-Type at all? As we do for text/event-stream and text/cache-manifest. Both which simply require UTF-8.
Good point - but to the contrary, I think that charset from Content- Type should be always honored, adding special cases is an unnecessary complication.
Formally, a proxy can re-encode any text/* resource and expect the client to honor Content-Type charset over <meta> and built-in preconceptions, although I think that such proxies are extremely rare in this millennium.
