> I think you're running into a basic impedance mismatch in that the web operates in terms of Unicode and the Linux filesystem operates in terms of octet sequences.  It's not going to be possible to round-trip arbitrary octet sequences through Unicode, even if we muck around with the normalizations here.

Sure--there's no fix that takes care of all cases.  But if we can at least handle all valid UTF-8, I think we're in good shape.
