Use of charset name CNS11643

All,
I received a question which is quite difficult to answer.  I'd like to preface
this with a few statements so as to avoid unrelated info:

1.  I know that CNS11643 is a coded character set (CCS) from the Taiwan gov't
standards body.
2.  I know that a CCS is not the same thing as a character encoding scheme
(CES).

3.  I use the term "charset" to refer to the name of a particular combination of
CCS and CES, for example, the charset EUC-TW.

Given that, has anyone seen the name "CNS11643" being used for EUC-TW, say, in
an HTML document meta tag, an HTTP header, or an email header?  Since neither
name is official, has anyone seen the name "EUC-TW"  used in such situations? 
Does anyone know if various browser versions generate or understand these 2
names?  How about mail clients?

Is anyone actively working on registering the charset names EUC-TW or EUC-CN
with IANA?

Thanks for any information,
