I suppose the following is legalistic....

If "latin1 is exactly the first 256 codepoints of Unicode" then cp1252 
is not a superset of Latin1: instead, instead of C1 characters cp1252 
has a jumble of graphics. If Latin1 is, say, ASCII with 96 more 
graphics, with a gap for C1, then indeed cp1252 is a superset of Latin1, 
but then it is not the first 256 codepoints of Unicode. I know not which 
outlook is actually taken.

O, how I miss Latin1! In Mozilla software it no longer appears. I now 
use only ASCII in web-pages that I write, symbols outside that range 
written with &...;.
