The string class, resulting as it does from concatenating plain and Unicode text, is actually styled text - and the style data seems to be enough to preserve the non-Latin characters. However, because of that received wisdom, one can't help wondering...

Styled text can represent *some* non-Latin characters, and it can't represent all Latin characters -- I believe some E. European letters are left out in the cold. Rather than attempt to explain what works and what doesn't, we just steer people to Unicode.
