One big reason why it doesn't work is because Qt's QTemporaryFile isn't
unicode-safe on windows. See qtemporaryfile.cpp:352
char *filename = qstrdup(qfilename.toLocal8Bit());
This doesn't work when the locale doesn't contain the used characters.
And since we're storing all KTemporaryFile's in the user home dir this
is a very big problem...
Who wants to write a bug report to tt?
