Bug Description
Hi,
I've noticed problems with accented letters since few days in 16.04 Unity :
- in window title bar, accented letters are replaced with « square symbols ». It happens in all softwares when windows are not maximized. Once maximized, accented letters are correctly shown ( in top panel, for example : Vidéos, Téléchargements… ). Wrong display of accented letters comes back once window is un-maximized.
- in dash, accented letters are ignored. If I type « démarrage » on keyboard I get « dmarrage » in dash
- [edit] same behaviour in HUD, no accented letters there either, which is very annoying in french.
I did not have those behaviours some days ago.

I've also noticed that bug does not happen if « folders » are opened using the bookmarks in Nautilus.
