Dear list,
Has there been some discussion already about allowing UTF-8 in
the source code, in particular for translatable strings? Is this
something we long for?

Seeing how there is unanimous interest, here's a proof of concept.
Please read the commit log carefully including the rationale and
the "TODO". Skip the first third regarding string updates (yes I
can make them in a separate patch).
While the subject of the patch may seem trivial, I think that
setting this up is a good investment for future use of Unicode in
the interface.
I'm trying to come up with examples where do we actually "need"
unicode in the interface. The ellipsis case seems to be trivial
indeed.
Properly formatted text in general, not just proper ellipses…
A revamped IPA toolbar?
The math toolbar?
See also src/frontends/qt4/ui/HSpaceUi.ui in the patch.
There are probably some cases involving HTML output, as well. What about
lib/symbols and the like?
