Pages that declare the encoding on the HTTP level are not affected.
Pages that declare the encoding in <meta> are decoded correctly, but the menu is initialized incorrectly.
Severity: normal → minor
Summary: "View source" defaults to Windows-1252 encoding for UTF-8 pages → Character Encoding menu in View Source window shows checkmark for windows-1252 when another encoding declared by <meta>
Same issue with an Atom feed served as UTF-8 with no meta tag though - view-source shows the actual feed source (not the source of Firefox's generated page) but has Western-1252 selected in the page encoding menu. In that case though there's a separate bug in dealing with its application/atom+xml IANA media type: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=978464
