True, but sax is reading the file, so sax is producing the unicode, so it
should (must) be able to determine the encoding. Furthermore, xml files
start with lines like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
so it would seem reasonable for sax to be able to return 'utf-8' somehow.
Am I missing something?
