Nice. Yet I was one day faster with mine :)

http://sourceforge.net/p/motsognir/code/100/
"added the ServerDefaultCharset CAPS token"

But you were obviously faster to release the end product to masses -- so 
a day later I see that I adapted Motsognir to your grammar:

http://sourceforge.net/p/motsognir/code/101/
renamed the 'ServerDefaultCharset' CAPS token to 'ServerDefaultEncoding'

Let's just stay with the current thing, it sounds good enough. It's not 
something any user is supposed to see anyway, so it could just as well 
be called "xyz" (actually that one would be far more space efficient!)

I'd say that "Charset" is more explicit that "Encoding", since the 
latter can mean different things in different contexts, while a 
"charset" is a pretty obvious thing (think "codepage"). But anyway, the 
implementations are out there, let's not touch them anymore to avoid 
unnecessary confusion. :)

cheers,
