As for UTF-8: It does make sense to assume that a document
is in UTF-8 if it
starts with a byte order mark. It has never been suggested
to use it as default
if no byte order mark is present.
As for MS 1252: We are talking about the import. MS 1252 is
a superset of ISO
8859-1. If a document contains only characters supported by
ISO 8859-1, then one
won't notice a difference between a default ISO 8859-1
default and a MS 1252
default, regardless on which platform one is. And if it does
contain MS1252-only
characters? Then you won't be able to display them on Linux,
regardless whether
ISO8859-1 or MS-1252 is the default. So the situation of
using MS-1252 as
default is definitely not worse than using ISO 8859-1. 

As for the general issue: Are we of aware of any issues with
the current
behavior in real life? If not, I would suggest that we keep
things as they are. 

Otherwise we may take the system encoding as default, but we
have to be aware of
the fact that this may break in some situations, too.
