           Summary: data:// URLs should not inherit charset from parent
                    frame
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 526+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Page Loading
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: ap at webkit.org


In Firefox, data:// URLs do not inherit charset from parent frame. This is
important because of cases such as <iframe src="data:image/svg+xml,..."> - the
URL should be decoded as UTF-8 for correct round-tripping.

On Leopard, this is currently masked by <rdar://problem/5845875>
-[NSURLResponse textEncoding] incorrectly reports us-ascii encoding for data:
URLs. Yet, we can fix this for other operating systems.
