This is fine with me (better to be conservative even if most mailers
should support latin 9 by now).

This works.

This is not immediate.  For example the presence of "Β½β¬" selects
iso-8859-7 (which is fine).  If I used 3/4 instead of 1/4, then euc-kr
would have been chosen.  This is OK for me but it is not following the
above rule.

Thanks for your work!

Best,
