I just committed a changed based on that example to GPA. It seems to work,
save for problems with accented capital letters (I'm working on a more
detailed report and test case).

For the record, GPA HEAD, and any release that used GTK+ 2.0 (so I think
that applies to 0.5.0), creates correctly UTF-8 encoded user ID's. That's
because GTK+ 2 encodes all user input in UTF-8. I've tested it, and it seems
to work.
