The FSF needs copyright assignment papers in this case. Would you be
willing to sign such papers?

Right. But if you just load that file into an Emacs buffer, does it
interpret that file correctly according to your settings, or do you have
to tell Emacs manually what encoding it is? I guess the latter, if you
normally handle files of both encodings. And in that case, perhaps the
MIME code should only ask when it's not obvious by looking at the file
what encoding it is?
