Dear Maintainer,

Trying to open a file which has a filename containing non-ascii
characters simply fails with a dialog "File does not exists at path:"
and the filename.

I have tried with a simple file with a filename containing the Swedish
characters åäö, "teståäö.txt"

This seems to be fixed in unstable, but is still present in jessie.

I have the the same observation. Perhaps the bug should be closed?
