Agreed. As is stands, if a user finds that they need to open files that
use non-ANSI characters in their filenames, they can always go into
their Language settings and turn on UTF-8 for worldwide language
support, which was just as true before the MAX_PATH-related patches.
Honestly, Microsoft just needs to stop delaying it and make UTF-8 the
default, and then we won't have this problem anymore.
