Sumlime Text 3 does not change the encoding of files encoded with BOM when I try to reopen it with any other encoding, including Hexadecimal.
UTF-8 with BOM persists when `Reopen with Encoding`

I guess it doesn’t make much sense to try and open such a file using a different encoding, but I agree that Hexadecimal should work. I can confirm that it doesn’t on ST 3156 x64 on Windows 7.

I had some faulty files that were not UTF-8 encoded, but started with a BOM by mistake. Because of this bug I was unable to delete the BOM and correct the encodung with Sublime.
Besides of this, an explicit user action, i.e. selecting the encoding, should not be ignored anyway.
