I'd expect problems with the desktop environment, not with the
applications.  I'm not a big fan of that unicode "feature" in the
spec anyway.  The corresponding paragraph in the spec can be
interpreted like this:

  The window manager should implement unicode window titles.  If
  it does not, it must implement unicode window titles instead.

The spec forces the window manager to translate eight bit
characters to unicode.  I reported this to the list along with
other inconsistencies in the spec several months ago, but nobody
seems to care :-(
