I finally (I know, I know...) took a moment to try to reproduce this
problem myself with an eye on fixing it. But the problem is that I
couldn't reproduce it. On my Linux machine, using 0.4.0, all works as
expected. Well, almost. I do see this warning in my console when I try
to "Save As..." a file with non-ASCII (UTF-8) characters:

UnicodeWarning: Unicode unequal comparison failed to convert both arguments
to Unicode - interpreting them as being unequal
