In this case, ASCII whitespace seems to only be used in processing the label parameter passed to the TextDecoder and TextEncoder constructors.  So, it isn't clear how CSS or anything else is relevant to that.

As I said, the algorithm used to get an encoding is also used by HTML,
CSS et al. See e.g.
http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-syntax/#input-byte-stream and
