Right. If you didn't encode it, the bytes are already characters in
the pipeline document.

I don't think so. If it's not XML, it won't have been successfully
parsed. Maybe it shouldn't be a MUST maybe it should just read
"If no encoding is specified, the content will have been interpreted
as XML when the pipeline was loaded." Or something.
Be seeing you,
