Legacy-Mixed is not an extensible list; it handles a fixed set of 
encodings for desktop files found a couple of years ago.
All other encodings need to be explicitly specified; e.g.
name[af.ISO-8859-1]. 

The current spec basically requires UTF-8 encoding always. 
(I'm not even sure that KDE supports Legacy-Mixed at all.)
