Ah, yeah... :)

And I'm not really sure what trouble æ, ø, and å could cause - they're just some other ASCII numbers! But then again, I'm all for converting to XML and UTF, where you can actually use whatever character you want, whereever you want to, except for <, >, &, ', and " due to their special meanings in XML... :P
But this is all out of topic, so I'll just let it rest now... PM me if you want to talk more about it with me :)
