Hi,
What exactly is the expected behavior for coding
utf-8-with-signature?
- if I understood correctly the BOM is a zero width no-break space
character that can be inserted directly
- whether or not to force the utf-8-with-signature encoding before
saving the buffer has no impact on the bom
- load-file with a source file in UTF-8 with BOM causes an error

The BOM is never displayed. Changing coding before saving has an effect, but nothing change in displayed buffer. Adding a BOM explictely is an error.
