file-roller mangles non English filenames without warning

[Duncan Lithgow]

Binary package hint: file-roller

What happens
Because of the inherent limitations in the ZIP archive format as described at http://superuser.com/questions/60379/linux-zip-tgz-filenames-encoding-problem it is not possible to encode file names with non-english characters so they deflate with the correct names.

If the problem is only with files in subfolders it is quite possible that I won't even see the problem until I try to extract the files - at which time it is too late to find the files original name.

What I expect
I expect to be warned (at least the first time) if this is going to happen. Even better file-roller could suggest an archive format which will not mangle the letters.
