If we can get IE and Safari to support RFC 5987, the problem that I wanted to solve in the first place (missing interop for I18N) will be gone. When we revise RFC 5987 for Draft Standard -- and I plan to do this as soon as possible -- when could then remove the requirement to support ISO-8859-1 as well. Best regards, Julian
