With unification on, my Gnus will choose the MIME charset via the most
preferred coding system that encodes all the characters in the
message.  I.e. for characters in the intersection of Latin-2 and
Latin-9, it will choose whichever is higher in your priority list.
Otherwise it will choose utf-8.  sendmail.el has code to do something
similar.  I think this is what Latin users want generally, but what
I've posted about it in the past has been contentious.

I haven't been able to check properly recent changes to Gnus in this
area.  They're different from what I've been using.
