Please be more careful with quotation marks. You are not quoting me, and I'm not sure what you actually refer to.

I'm not sure what potential usefulness you have in mind. Safari behavior is designed to be interoperable and consistent. It results in correct downloaded file names for users of all live Web sites that I'm aware of (except for mail.google.com, which blacklists Safari, and wouldn't work correctly regardless of how we handled its responses).

Perhaps there are sites that misbehave; I'd like to know about these to investigate what's going on, and potentially tweak the approach.

It is not useful or interesting to discuss this behavior in a theoretical context where non-ASCII characters in Content-Disposition are not allowed at all.
