1. what will IE do?
2. What will happen if you turn on Auto-Detect?
3. What will happen if you manually set the encoding to EUC-JP?
I think this is an invalid bug. If the page does not tell use what charset it
is, we will display it as the default charset unless auto detect is on or we
manually override it, in that moment, we shall trigger font download code.
