We will no longer support broken encodings in KDE. We have had transition code
for several years (at least since 2003) and I think 5 years is enough time for
people to finish transitioning to UTF-8 environments.

This bug is about broken-encoded files. *Properly* encoded filenames should be 
working and if they aren't, please open a new bug report on the subject.

You will hate me for this, but this bug is a WONTFIX. 5 years is enough time.
If in 5 years you haven't renamed all your files, you should use the terminal
to do it. 

More info on why this is close to impossible to implement:

Do *not* reopen the bug.
