Autodetection fails 100% on every cp1251 russian or belarusian file.
Asking every time for encoding will be extremely annoying.

oh. Didnt know.
But isn't it as annoying as manually selecting every time on the opendialog - combobox?
Or the combobox remembers the last selected value. In this case if you previusly have selected this cb1251 and then you want to open another file encoded diferently, you have to change it again, if you dont know the format, you have to make it autodetect, and if it fails, you have to manually guess and try.
If the autodetect ask when it fails, then it can save this choice for the next fail and try it before asking again. In this way, this dialog will show up only once until another undetected file format appear.
Any way, the current opendialog doesn't hurt anyone.
