Don't be too serious about that, 'am being 100% sure you know, but
having been stung by "concise" (and because my MUA had to
implement n_iconv_name_is_ascii()) i want to point out that the
IANA character sets define more aliases for US-ASCII, already in
RFC 1345.  Here in reverse MIME preference order:

   static char const * const names[] = {"csASCII", "cp367", "IBM367", "us",
         "ISO646-US", "ISO_646.irv:1991", "ANSI_X3.4-1986", "iso-ir-6",
         "ANSI_X3.4-1968", "ASCII", "US-ASCII"};
