The current charset coercion code, while nice, can be a bit heavy handed and is just wrong in certain circumstances. In order to get ready for 1.0 I would like to add the following enhancements:

* Make coercion optional and off by default
* Allow the user to set a list of Content-Types that should be coerced (default to "text/*")
* Allow the user to set a fallback charset if the charset provided by the server is unknown or none is provided
