The 'real' fun starts when you have a file in German with the double s
character or an umlatted a, o or u and a file with the same but not
containing the special characters or their Anglicized equivalents.
Is that really a problem? Admittedly my encoding skills are not great,
but AFAIK in UTF-8 those are just different set of bytes, so they
shouldn't be confused.
A lowercase 'umlaut a' would be something like:
11000011 10100100
An uppercase 'umlaut A' would be something like:
11000011 10000100
Which is completely different to lowercase 'a'
01100001
