Public bug reported:

Step 1 :

I got file names with invalid encoding (mainly from an Ooooold Mac)
In nautilus, it is displayed as 

Ch 03 _  jud�o-christianisme.DOC (codage non valide)

But an ls command displays :

Ch 03 _  jud?o-christianisme.DOC 
(Without the "codage non valide" mention)

Step 2 :

In Nautilus, I renamed the file just by correcting the invalid character
:

The result is :
Ch 03 _  judéo-christianisme.DOC (codage non valide)

And the ls command issues :
Ch 03 _  judéo-christianisme.DOC (codage non valide)

So I had originally an invalid file without any mention of it in command
line, and I end with a correctly encoded filename with the mention
"codage non valide"

I wish a more consistent behaviour by not writing back the string " (codage non valide)" to the file name after correction,
or by writing the string " (codage non valide)" to the file name on detection of the invalid coding.
