This is unlikely because the symbols of 8859-1 that were dropped in
8859-15 are seldom used.  I think one can live with the current
situation (maybe the manual could explain which variable to set to
reduce the allowed charsets to, say, iso-8859-1, iso-8859-15 and utf-8
for those who find this unbearable).
