This will be fixed in XWiki 2.3.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but we had to disable non-ASCII characters 
for several reasons:
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2087
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2090
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2102

Basically, in a non-UTF-8 environment it was really hard to fix the old 
TinyMCE-based WYSIWYG editor, and we also had some URL double-decoding 
issues that at the moment were hard to fix. I know, being lazy is not a 
good excuse, we could have invested more effort into fixing the real 
issues instead of disabling non-ASCII characters, but we think that this 
was the least dangerous solution with the least amount of effort, with 
only a limited impact on users (since most users at that time were OK 
with this approach).

As I already said, we'll try hard to have it fixed in the next release.
