Title:
  usb-creator fails when the image file's path contains non-ASCII
  characters

Status in “usb-creator” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  usb-creator seems confused by my download folder being called "Téléchargement" (notice the non-ASCII characters).
  It will yield a "Echec d'installation" (installation failed) message each time I select anything in there.
  If I move the image file to a folder without accents I correctly install the image.

  I used to work around this by with "LANG=C sudo usb-creator-gtk" but in Saucy this results in an error popup stating:
  "An unhandled exception occurred:
  'ascii' codec can't encode character '\xe9' in position 10: ordinal not in range(128)"
