docs of what? mimetype.assign = ()?

there are no docs, in pld mimetype.assign is generated from 
/etc/mime.types, and the charset header is just programmed using string 
concat that lighttpd config engine supports.


so, that go with that last option (mimetype_charsetheader = "; 
charset=\"utf-8\"") ?, better than completely reverting...

and you seem to mean by "user files" html <meta http equiv>?
