Sure. But nowhere does a spec say that this page charset should be used in sending the values of a FORM using application/x-www-form-urlencoded in a new HTTP request. It's just a convention some browsers use.

Let's call it a de facto standard then. A behaviour doesn't have to be engraved in an RFC to be considered standard.

Antoine.
