 I work with french or english files but I use only UTF8.
I don't understand why "%!TEX encoding" is very useful to avoid the chaos of mixtures of encodings 
in the same file? For me it's the chaos to mix several encodings.

If you put %!TEX encoding = ...  you can mix encodings? I never try that but if you are right
 is very fine. Perhaps I need to read something about %!TEX ...
