Then we can make C-q insert Latin 1 characters in binary files.
What
definitely doesn't make sense is C-q always inserting Latin 1
characters for 128-255 range.
The problem is that the user may change the coding system only later.
For me it is sometimes useful to insert Latin 2 characters by
number,
and I really have no idea what numbers Mule assigns to Latin 2
characters.
Yes. Maybe we should just document that doing the thing I mentioned
above is the wrong thing to do and you should make sure
buffer-file-coding-system is set correctly before doing C-q.
i.e. treat C-q like external I/O and handle it like that with respect
to all the coding system settings.
