That reminds me of this this question. What is a (de jure|de facto)
standard for fallback character? Is it up to each module?
FYI My humble Jcode uses "blank square" (aka Tofu) and MacOS X uses
single '?'.
links uses '*', which I find easier to read than '?'
(for all those *****y MSHTML pages that allege ISO-8859-1 and then use
MS sexed '', where the server should be reporting the page as Windows charset)
I believe that the fallback should be configurable on a per-something
basis (per charset?) which then leaves us debating what the default should
be.
