Depends on the format. Formats should provide means to specify
the encoding, if they do not they are BAD, broken as designed.

If we really promote in-band declarations, we should recommend 
one mechanism for all textual formats.  I think that CSS style 
declaration (@chaset) is the best I have seen.  If the TAG recommends 
this mechanism for all formats except XML and HTML, that would 
be one reasonable principle.
