(code in HEAD) Copying a file/folder does not copy its charset to the destination. The reason for that is that during resource operatins like move/delete the encoding settings are updated by a resource change listener. Since there is no special delta for copying that relates the destination to the source location, we don't handle that case.
Either bug 27879 (a COPY flag in resource delta) or bug 21411 (shareable persistent properties) could make fixing this bug easy. Otherwise, we would have to resolve this problem in an ad hoc fashion, what I would like to avoid. Deferring for post-3.0.
[LATER->WONTFIX] The "LATER" bugzilla resolution is being removed so reopening to mark as WONTFIX.
