--- Comment #1 from James E. LaBarre <j.e.labarre at gmail.com> ---
Don't know about CD-TEXT, but I know that audio tags can be in other character
sets, I have plenty of tracks with Japanese artists/titles/tags.  Current
filesystems seem to have no problem with them either (although I have
occasionally seen mangled filenames from some OS/filesystem that couldn't
handle them).  

The problem with the example here is it presumes there are latin-1 characters
that are near look-alikes.  This would not be the case with Kanji/kana,
Cyrillic, Korean, Arabic, Chinese (I think there's at least two character sets
there).

I bring this up because I had just tried bringing in just these sorts of files
into K3B 20.08.1 (most recent in Fedora 33) and it still continues to replace
non-Latin-1 characters with underscores.  Which makes it unusable for writing
an audio CD
