Uhmm. How do you expect 'unicode input' to work ? Using those
funny Umlauts printed at least at german keyboards does work
finally and Alt-Numeric Keyboard Keys does work as well ...

I fail to see the problem with using hashes or anything like that
as 'internal' string markers. But there will be a compatibility
problem removing them.

The default XML encoding from Dia is utf-8 _now_. There where
version of Dia and libxml which did simply use the system locale
without giving any hint about which it was. And most of the
long time user probably would be rather annoyed if Dia could
