Thank you for the testing you've done (there was a chance some thing was wrong
with my profile, but I was not thrilled with idea of resetting it).

I agree the characters should be expected to be scrambled in a different way
with another locale.

I am not sure if I understand what exactly is «Linux with an UTF-8 locale», but
I tested it with more or less standard Lubuntu (default English interface with
Russian layout installed, though) and found it working perfectly fine in all
cases described in the original post.
