but you would be willing to return both the
charset (name) and decoded text from
encoded-word = "=?" charset "?" encoding "?" encoded-text "?="

Well, no, actually it's very nasty as you have to chunk such headers;
they can even contain multiple different charsets :/
Hmm, maybe passing an optional recode(charset, bytes) function to be
called on every such chunk would make for a reasonable interface?
