umlauts characters support in Notes.ini

When you create a user with the name "Test Jür/HCL", you will find there is no support for umlaut characters in Notes.ini

KeyFileName_Owner=CN=Test Jr/O=HCL
MailFile=mail\tjr.nsf
Location=Online,BF6,CN=Test Jr/O=HCL
AUTO_SAVE_USER,Test Jr/HCL=as_TJr.nsf
$Recent_App1=Test Jr's Log,Notes:///85258DD6004DD912/$MainFrameset?OpenFrameset&view=852559B400670541852558A4005FF2E0##

whereas if you autosave function in preferences, the file name as_TJür.nsf shows correctly at the operating system level.

When you use the UTF-8 character set for Notes.ini, it shows garbled characters instead of the Umlaut character.

Please consider the request to support Umlaut characters in Notes.ini.
