> Latin-1, Latin-14 (Euro zone)

OT-remark: I assume you meant ISO8859-15 (aka. Latin-9) here. However,
that's not for the "Euro zone", it's just Latin-1 with the Euro character
wangled in and a couple of other changes. It still lacks characters that
are commonly used by languages within the Euro zone, e.g. the Slovenian
language (a Slavic descendant), but also Gaelic or Welsh.
