problem renaming files with unicode names

Hello, I think I might have found another one, but it could be intentional too.

I have a few files by composer Antonin Dvořák, that's where I noticed it. When I try to rename a file with this 'special r', when switching to renaming mode the 'ř' bevomes a normal 'r', also I can't insert this character from the clipboard in a filename. It does work fine in explorer.
As long as I don't edit the filenames, the character is correctly displayed though.

Yes, this is an admitted shortcoming of XY: you cannot rename unicode file names and keep the unicode characters. It's one of the things I'm not proud of.

Yea I thought it might be something like that

No worries though, I barely (if ever) need it anyways, was the first time I noticed it since I started using XY ages ago, so I'll manage
