No, you certainly wouldn't want to misdeclare the encoding as utf-8 if the
actual encoding is windows-1252! The bytes above 0x7F would be 
misinterpreted.

"cp1252" is not in the IANA registry but might work with certain parsers, 
especially if they are writen in Java. A misdeclaration of "iso-8859-1" 
also might suffice.
