What charset should be used to inspect the content?  Should this be defined in
this I-D?

The new rules say that
"charset" parameter is not used for the defined
       subtype, because the charset information is transported inside
       the payload (such as in "text/xml")

 But a charset is needed in order to read the payload and determine that
charset.  Catch-22?
