Thanks for the input. The gen file picker also works - as expected - if I set
LANG=C.UTF-8. I forgot that, thanks for the reminder.

Ok.
So I tried to find the definition for the C / POSIX locale and found:
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap07.html and
http://port70.net/~nsz/c/c89/c89-draft.html
What I actually couldn't find is a setting, which has any meaning with regard
to the filesystem encoding. If you say file names are just strings, then
LC_CTYPE might match, but IMHO that's today a long shot.
So now arises the question: should / can we change the C locale to default to
UTF-8 for interpreting filenames instead of ISO_8859_1, which is today much
more common?
I don't know if this actually does match. And I'm also not sure this is
feasible in a sensible matter in LO, but somehow Qt and Gtk+ make this
assumption and act accordingly.
I'm not aware of any other system API, which could be queried for something
like that. I tested gimp on Windowmaker with xterm and LANG=C. Still there
might be some system setting.
