If I have understood this correctly, filenames are not "in" a locale, they
are absolute. Users, on the other hand, are "in" a locale, and users view
filenames. The same filename can "look" different to two different users. To
user A (whose locale is Latin-1), a filename might look valid; to user B
(whose locale is UTF-8), the same filename might look invalid.
Is that right, Lars?
If so, Marcin, what exactly is the error, and whose fault is it?
Jill

Using non-UTF-8 filenames in a UTF-8 locale is IMHO an error.
