If the item name is in UTF-8, doing that blindly can leave you with an
invalid UTF-8 character at the end of the truncated string. In fact you
might end up with no valid characters, just one invalid one.
Yes, as said before in this thread you have to use the C99 function
mbtowc() or some library dedicated to handle multibyte char strings.
