    <r12a> my initial recommendations:

    <r12a> - say for newly-created documents everywhere that utf-8
    is mandated, to avoid confusion around legacy pages

    <r12a> - make sure it’s clear that documents must be encoded in
    utf-8, rather than simply that the charset value is utf-8, for
    authors

    <r12a> - tighten up our articles about choosing and declaring
    encoding in HTML - add charset info, and need to use utf-8 for
    script pages

    <r12a> - continue to include information about acceptable
    legacy encodings, and requirements for their labelling in some
    obscure section

    Action: richard: file utf-8 issue on html53
