@loewis: Ok, I didn't know. I think that it's better to reuse existing
code.
I also compared the implementations of encoding detection, and the
code looks the same in IDLE and tokenize, but I prefer tokenize.
tokenize.detect_encoding() has longer documentation, return the line
(decoded as Unicode) matching the encoding cookie, and look to be more
robust.
I saw an interesting test in IDLE code: it checks the charset. So I
wrote a patch raising a SyntaxError for tokenize: issue4021.
