Ok, you both are right and thank you for the gentle pushing which led to a
new patch that enables UTF-8 character definition in the font description
file and UTF-8 character output from the font file to the GUI. It is
compatible with previous font definitions.

Again, for easy reading the diff is from r32799, i.e. before I've made my
first change concerning message translation, and with --ignore-space-change.

Assuming I will commit at some point, should I commit twice, i.e. first undo
my first message translation attempt and then commit the UTF-8 patch or
commit changes from the actual revision, i.e. having all in one commit?
