Is there any reason for expressing that preference? It strikes me that it has no impact whatsoever on the interoperability of implementations. > The names of files and directories within a Zip archive must only be > encoded in US-ASCII (IBM Code Page 437) or UTF-8, but only if general > purpose bit 11 is set in accordance with the [ZIP] specification (set > of UTF-8 or unset of US-ASCII). This sentence is confusing. Code Page 437 and US-ASCII are not the same. The half-sentence "but only if general purpose bit 11 is set ..." should be turned into a clause of its own, "General Purpose Bit 11 MUST be set in accordance with the [ZIP] specification."
