--- Comment #4 from Addison Phillips <addison@lab126.com> ---
The text in this section has changed and I can't find the "offending bits" any
longer. Actually, I believe this has been taken over by the Encodings document
and the issue is being discussed in a bug there. Since there isn't anything in
HTML to change, closing the bug.

Regarding Ian's comment, the replacement character for UTF-8 is well known to
be U+FFFD and all of the browsers use that code point when presented with
malformed UTF-8 data. Other encodings do work as described in my original
comment. However, I will stipulate that URL conversion may be handled
specially. Since this is no longer a bug, I haven't produced a test case to
test it with.
