If it wasn't clear. while I am not thrilled that one has to look for the 
BOM to tell how a Javascript item is encoded, I also realize that it's 
baked into every browser in the world, so I agree that we should document 
the reality.

In the future it would be nice to make the types and content match better, 
but that's something to address when new types appear.
