Title:
  bzr crashed with UnicodeDecodeError in _escape_cdata(): 'ascii' codec
  can't decode byte 0xc5 in position 11: ordinal not in range(128)

Status in “bzr” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I was committing a packaging change, and thanks to bzr commit now
  behaving like debcommit I couldn't edit the commit message which
  resulted in my correctly written name being in the changelog. Bzr
  doesn't seem to like the 'š' in the name though, so I had to use -m
  and write the whole changelog again.
