I found that the RFC said

: An implementation MAY override the UTF-8 default by using
: this header key. An implementation MAY implement this key
: and any translations it cares to; an implementation MAY
: ignore it and assume all text is UTF-8.

about "Charset" armor header key.
So, Dan Ohnesorg's request turned out to be quite reasonable.

Maybe Mutt should allow users to use it with an option.
Though it must be unset by default (because the header is
not signed, as Werner said.)

Will it be in the CVS if I write a patch which implements
an option to let users rely on "Charset" header?
If not, I won't write it. ;)
