In the absence of an explicit charset parameter, the encoding specified by the xml encoding declaration is used. (This is a change from RFC 3023, which required enforcing us-ascii in that case).

Hi Julian,

Right - text/* is much more constrained here in terms of what can be fixed. 

So text/xml has not changed but also, is deprecated for that reason. My comment (slightly loose as a summary, perhaps) was in the context of application/xml and the non-text/*+xml types.
