If you can hook into the framework, you can always write your own
converter with something like (not checked):

   string convert_single_char(int chr)
   {
     if (char < 127)
       return string(chr);
     else {
       char buf[20];

       snprintf(buf, 20, "#%4x", chr);
       return string(buf);
     }
   }

I don't know if you can hook into the framework, but then you could
always just loop through the string, converting single characters on
the fly.
