        <tp:rationale>
          <p>It could be desirable for a configuration interface to remember
            the user's previous choice of custom SMSC, even if it's not in use.
            This boolean allows that choice to be saved as an account parameter
            by Mission Control, rather than the UI needing to save it elsewhere
            to be restored if the user wants to reactivate it.</p>

        empty string), and the second time after a new SIM has been inserted

        <p>Hint for the connection manager for the GSM character set that
          should be used to send SMSes. The connection manager SHOULD follow
          this hint unless it has other ways to determine a better encoding.
          If the value is <code>"gsm"</code> (which SHOULD be the default),
          SMSes will be encoded in the normal 7-bit GSM character set,
          eventually falling back to UCS-2; see the
          <tp:member-ref>MessageReducedCharacterSet</tp:member-ref> property
          for details.
          Other valid character sets are specified in the
          <a href="http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/specs/archive/23_series/23.038/"
            >GSM standard</a> and are, for instance, <code>"turkey"</code>,
          <code>"spain"</code> or <code>"portugal"</code>.
          If the SMS cannot be encoded using the requested character set the
          behaviour is implementation-specific, but it is RECOMMENDED that
          the connection manager should behave as if this property was set
          to <code>"gsm"</code>.</p>
