Title:
  Can't drag desktop entries from paths with umlauts to unity launcher

Status in Unity:
  Fix Released
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  As i found out, you can't drag desktop entries (files ending with
  .desktop) from a directory containing umlauts to the unity launcher.
  The entry is not displayed - but is still there, as seen in the
  myunity configuration editor. In my case it was the localized name
  "Arbeitsfläche" for my desktop directory. Copying the file to my home
  directory and dragging it from there fixed the problem.

  By the way, where are the entries located? myunity crashes when
  selecting a non-native entry from the quicklist, so I couldn't remove
  this invisible entry, yet.
