maybe there could be something like

% !4ht encoding = latin1

as first line of such files. if we had to read just first line of each
file from Lua callback, it shouldn't be big overhead.

we can check for LuaTeX and install callback in tex4ht.sty, which will
ensure that each .4ht file is processed.

I've tried to replace some characters with ^^ notation, but the
conversion haven't worked.
