You're right, character encoding is set for the whole file, i.e.
'external parsed entity', I misread XML 1.1 section 4.3.3 on a late
night rereading...
I had always thought that was the case, but thought I read differently
in the 1.1 spec.
Still, in an XIS implementation it makes sense, even if the text would
be converted uniformly when going to XML 1.1.
