Keeping them UTF-8 would be nice.

Code: Select all

char_name_letters: ! $%&'()*+,-./
char_name_letters: 0123456789
char_name_letters: ;<=>?
char_name_letters: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPRSTQUVWXYZ
char_name_letters: @\^_`
char_name_letters: abcdefghijklmnoprstquvwxyz
char_name_letters: |~
I would expect that those letters work.

Only ascii characters are on the whitelist, so character encoding is not applicable.

The problem with adding international characters to the whitelist is that GMs need to be able to type them.
