I did a quick search and didn't find anything here so I figured i'd make a 
post.
I've noticed that the backups being made by TiddlyWiki don't save unicode, 
at least not on Firefox 19/20+TiddlyFox.

I noticed this when I was editing things with Notpad++ and noticed a "◄" 
that for some-reason I copy/pasted rather than typing #&x25C4;
And after a bit of looking around I noticed that all the backups are being 
saved in ACSII and not Unicode like the tiddlywiki it's self.
Anyway digressing anytime TiddlyWiki saves a backup the backups are 
converted ACSII, and losses all the non-escaped Unicode characters. 

It's not something I'm super worried about since I normally always escape 
my stuff, and I rarely use Tw backups in favor of my own backup habits, 
however I figured I'd bring it up since this could be considerable bad for 
a none English writer using TiddlyWiki and expecting backups to actually be 
useful. 

P/s
Testing with an empty 2.7.0
◄♦ becomes �f in the backups and Notepad++ reports the backups are encoded 
in ACSII when inspected well main empty.html is UTF-8 Without BOM.
