IMHO no, I don't consider this an extension, and I'm quite sure none of
the file managers will (I know for windows, linux luckily is useable
without one *g*)

We're using it already all over the place, so yes. It breaks with setlocale,
but we don't care (which reminds me, at least gtk2 seems to work fine without
setlocale, you just have to have the strings in utf8. Maybe we can do something
about that? Because gmplayer crashing with binary codecs for all turkish users sure
is suboptimal).
