This behaviour is a bit annoying. Reproducible: Always
Yes, the fact that it does not scroll to the original position in the page is annoying when you change the encoding very often.
Depends on: 17889
This bug is still in Firefox 2.0 RC3. Btw. the bug was confirmed by Ria Klaassen but is still in unconfirmed state.

What about this now? The bug has been confirmed but not set to confirmed state and nobody is taking care about it.
