Re: [Evolution] Unicode window titles

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

Ok, then either we are wrongly setting the title using raw utf8 (which
is a different bug), or kwin is not reading the old property right
(personally i suspect the former of course).

gtk 2 does have this stuff afaik, so it will eventually be addressed,
but apart from fixing evolution to set using the correct charset with
the current api (which i suspect would address the problem  sufficiently
for most people), messing about with window properties directly seems
like something we'd want to avoid.

Ok, i thought you would mean that but it didn't read that way, nor did
the page i looked at. :)
