I tested this with the new version 0.96.1 of dia and the behaviour was
consistent: dia takes care that the characters are printed like as you
see them in the diagram window. Both when exported to (e)ps and to
pstricks (and then processed with latex).
I'm closing this bug now since I think this is intended behaviour.
However, I created an upstream report at
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=436135
for your wishlist idea. Feel free to subscribe there and stay in contact
with the (always nice and active) developers there.
Thanks for considering,
Roland
