Another instance of the same problem is SVG files (and MathML files) which may contain non-ASCII and non-WINDOWS-1252 text.

Test page: http://malform.no/testing/html5/bom/frame5
   Features of the HTML page: 
      a) Windows-1252, 
      b) contains <iframe>, <img> and <object> with the same SVG file in each
      c) SVG file features: 
          * UTF-8 encoded, but without encoding declaration or BOM.
          * Text of the SVG file is 'Hello, world!" in Russian (Cyrillic).

EXPECTED RESULTS: 
   That the SVG file is rendereds the same way, regardless of whether it is referenced from the <iframe> element, the <img> element or the <object> element.

ACTUAL RESULTS: 
   Only when occuring inside the <img> file, does the SVG work as expected.
