Indeed, 'charset' was probably not the right choice. Perhaps we should revisit the decision to set :ascii-compatible-p automatically, since it is an end-to-end property that depends on the semantics of all parts in the coding chain, including the provided conversion functions and translation tables. The caller is in a much better position to know whether that property should be set.
