The problem I find with using a META for "charset" is that many
(most?) of my documents are a mixture of SJIS, us-ascii, and iso-
2022-jp.  In addition, I don't know what the correct mime designation
is for "SJIS", if there is one.  So it's hard to decide what the
"right XXXX" is.  Actually, the mixing of character sets is not uncommon
in Japan.  Another problem is that using a META tag can also make the
page unreadable by Japanized Netscape (no real loss I guess).
