It may be, at least in the short term, since Latin-0 has the advantage
(in terms of ease of implementation) of being an *8-bit* character
set.

Do you have a count for the number of browsers which can display 8-bit
ISO-8859-x encodings (where x <> 1), but not multi-octet encodings?
[I don't, but I expect that there are many]
