12.0.1 (x86_64)

How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:

2. change encoding to something different than the default.
3. go to another tab and back.
  
Actual results:

This seems to be upstream bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=487386
Tabs don't remember internal states and are reloaded each time you switch to them. Fix seems to be non-trivial (see bug at mozilla bugzilla). Closing as upstream, we're going to track this issue there.
