You may be right about the default browser encoding, but I'm pretty sure you 
are not right about UTF-8.

Having UTF-8 Content-Disposition served by all Web sites that offer downloads 
would be the ideal outcome from higher principles. RFC 5987 style gobbledygook 
really has no purpose here, and only complicates life for implementors, site 
authors and admins alike.

RFC 5987 "gobbledygook" works in all recent browsers except the one you're working on. It's the only thing that currently works almost everywhere.

I know you don't like it but please stop spreading FUD. RFC 5987 allows senders to send the same thing to all clients without UA sniffing. If you have a different proposal for which this is true please go ahead and write it down.

We know that it works in practice.

No, it does not "work". See <http://greenbytes.de/tech/tc2231/#attwithutf8fnplain>. So IE, Opera, and Konqueror decode as ISO-8859-1.

Best regards, Julian
