Bug Description
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
I am unable to open files with special characters (æøå, specifically) in their filename through nautilus. I presume it is an encoding error in OpenOffice, since opening through OOo works, but when saving the opened document, the special charaters in the filename is encoded incorrectly.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create an openoffice document and rename it to, for example, "abcæ.odt"
2. Open the document, and observe that OOo claims that "/path/to/abcæ.odt does not exist"

1. Create an openoffice document and rename it to, for example, "abcæ.odt"
2. Start OOo
3. Open the document through the "Open" button in OOo
4. Save the document and observe that it is saved as "abcæ.odt"
I cannot confirm this bug with my fully-patched Dapper install.
