It's a variation. The undefined codepoints in 1252 probably shouldn't be used, and I can't imagine that adding a code page helps anything, nor that changing an existing behavior helps anything. People really should be using UTF-8.

I've been told that bestfit1252 wasn't meant to redefine the cp1252 mapping, although its first line declares "CODEPAGE 1252".
Is it a separate encoding or not?
If so, I'll submit a new "bestfit1252" to the python stdlib.
If not, I believe the cp1252 mapping needs brought into line.
