    Humm... Really forward it upstream is useless: Would soon be closed
as dupe. Is it usefull to let an upstream wishlist also open in Debian?
When there is no feature patch Debian could adopt first?

    OK. You don't need $edit_charset for that. You can just setup or
call Vim so that for Mutt auto-sensing is disabled and files are loaded
and saved in current locale charset. I just tried this works in .vimrc:

| set termencoding=latin1
| set encoding=utf-8
| set fileencodings=latin1

    But a Vim guru could better advice how to set fileencodings only
when called from Mutt, keeping "ucs-bom,utf-8,latin1" otherwise. And if
possible get rid of the "latin1" hardcoding so it follows the locale.
