Filed bug 66106. I filed it agains the XML component - you may want to link it to some other component - I don't know which is correct.

Regarding good point: This issue should also be related to bug 17873 "Encoding override should not be persistent", which asks that Webkit shoudl behave like Firefox: Firefox goes into default state for every page load. That is: it listens to what the page or the server says *everytime it loades the page*, even if the user has selected another enocing. That way,  the user choice is always ignored (perhaps with the exception for when the user uses one of the chardet encoding detection choices?), except that the user might force another encoding by choing an encoding *after* the page has loaded.  I think the Firefox behaviour is the better one here - and the Firefox behaviour is also more in line with what I have asked for in these bugs.
