I think this is one of the most common places, too.  Whenever I've come across 
unicode filenames it has been because the user has a unicode Windows username, 
so their 'home directory' (and temp directory, desktop folder, etc) does too.  
Convincing people to either change their username or to go through the fairly 
complicated process of moving these directories elsewhere generally isn't 
feasible.
