it's wrong to set charset to UTF-8 for text

[kaven276]

In mime.js

charsets: {
   lookup: function (mimeType, fallback) {
     // Assume text types are utf8.  Modify mime logic as needed.
     return (/^text\//).test(mimeType) ? 'UTF-8' : fallback;
   }
 }

I have many static file that's not utf-8 encoded, when access from web server like connect, the browser display mess.

If leave charset empty, the browser will itself detect charset of the content, and display correctly.

Are you saying Connect shouldn't be returning a charset? If so, then please file a bug with that project. Otherwise, what specifically are you suggesting be changed here?
