Replying to [comment:12 axeld]:
> Haiku always uses UTF-8 by default. Guessing the character encoding is
pretty hard to do for most encodings, and usually requires a lot of work.
Granted, you can easily find out if something is not UTF-8, but that
doesn't get you that far.
By the way, ICU has character detectors and we can profit from this by
wrapping those features in the Local kit. This is what #9395 is about.
Anyway STXTTranslator do some homebrew rudimentary assumption about
encoding. So, IMO we have to push hands in the dirt sooner or later.
