Give the number of Unicode errors we've seen in bzr in production, is there a need to start working on getting good Unicode testing in the various bits of data bzr processes?

I'm submitting the fixes now for a branch which tests lots of permutations. There may still be a few commands which it doesn't test, but patches are welcome.
