Regarding text editors, when I'm in emacs (without X), it depends on the xterm I'm using. For example, xterm, rxvt, and konsole insert a tab-space when I try pasting characters such as é. The GNUstep Terminal pastes the character just fine. When using gedit, I think the encoding is wrong because I get all sorts of exciting characters in my output when I try processing the characters. Kate works fine. Note that I have done minimal configuration to the programs (I don't even know where to start) mentioned.
Finally, when I try using the \markup "qw\\'er" method, I get the following error (I'm using 2.4.2 on Debian):
$ lilypond-snapshot texencoding.ly

Josiah doesn't say what text editor he uses to produce the .ly files. The thing is that the inputencoding you specify in the .ly file should be the same as the encoding that the editor uses when saving the file. Since the default inputencoding is latin1, you should either use an editor that saves the file using latin1 (ISO 8859-1) encoding or change the setting in the .ly file corresponding the encoding your editor uses.

At me the following cases work:
composer = "qwér" poet = \markup "qw\\'er" { qwér } arranger = \markup "\\\"asdf " { äsdf }
c^\markup { "qw\\'er" } \override TextSpanner #'edge-text = #'("qw\\'er" . "asdf")
