You are right and I am merging the tickets. What I wrote there in https://bugs.debian.org/139861#91 still applies. The best course of action would be to get this resolved upstream with the functionally properly integrated. Until then this remains a known deficiency. Unfortunately actually getting code fixed isn't as easy as submitting a bug report and then magically a fix appears. For some simple things this may be easy. For very complex things like full UTF-8 support this is NOT EASY. Complex things like UTF-8 support will take MANY HOURS of EFFORT and REVIEW. If you think it is easy that is great because maybe you have the programming skills to get the job done. If anyone actually wants to get this working they should work within the upstream project to get the code written, to get the code reviewed, to get the code tested, and then finally get the code released.
