User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:35.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/35.0 SeaMonkey/2.32 Build ID: 20150527174621 Steps to reproduce: I'm on Linux with LANG=en_US.UTF-8 Whenever I save a page as text or HTML that has a different charset, then I need to convert it manually. Given that SM's _editor_ allows "Save and change character encoding", why not exposing this option in SM's _browser_ "save as" dialogue? Ideally, there should be a checkbox "convert to your locale's charset" or something similar, and, optionally, a run-time warning for "lossy" conversions. Of course, this applies to FF as well!
