    <thetext>Both IE 11 and Chrome use iso-8859-1 as a canonical. I bet IE will not change because Shawn Steele resists any changes to legacy encodings.
Opera Presto was the only browser using windows-1252 until Gecko changed the canonical name. Now Presto is dead. Gecko will turn back as soon as the spec is updated.</thetext>

    <thetext>How is this different from bug 15340? That instead of treating them distinct we still treat them as one but change the canonical name?

I thought the issue in other browsers is that they still treat them somewhat distinctly, even though encoding/decoding is identical.</thetext>
