Avoiding encoding I/O Error

Dear jedit-users mail list members,

How can I avoid the following I/O Error?

The following I/O operation could not be completed:
<filename>:
The file could not be loaded correctly (some data might be lost) with
the encoding "UTF-8,windows-1252".
(See details in Activity Log)
Try selecting a different encoding.
It can be selected with the menu File->Reload with Encoding.
If you want it to be done automatically, add the candidates into
"List of fallback encodings" in Encodings pane of Global Options.

I would prefer to be able to search a large directory hierarchy that may include arbitrary binary files and never see this error. I particularly don't want to have to dismiss it multiple times.

Is there an encoding that never fails that I could add to the fallback encodings, such as an 8-bit one with all code points well defined?

Regards
John Fisher
