Quite an old bug from 2017. Is there a workaround to be able to import
accounts with non-English characters?
I am also not able to /manually/ create a new account including
non-English characters. For example, the letter "å" can be typed here
by pressing "Alt-0229". However, it doesn't work when trying to type
this letter in the Account name for a New Account.
Is this another bug?
Can you copy and paste the correct characters into place?

@Liz,
Yes. copy/paste works but not typing the character directly. I guess
this is
a bug.
I can't enter non-ACSII characters in the Account name in Gnucash
4.4/MacOS 11.2.3 either (viking is having the issue on Windows GC
4.4). Normally on the Mac, OPTION-"u", "u" should enter ü (u-umlaut),
but when I type the "u" after the OPTION-"u", a small text entry popup
is displayed that covers the New Account popup's Help button, and a
single "u" (without umlaut) appears in the text entry popup.
After that text entry popup appears, all text entry goes into that
popup. The Cancel button on the New Account popup still works to get
out of it.
Maybe GTK is grabbing the keyboard codes before the normal keyboard
text entry processing is done on them.

Curiouser and curioser. If in MacOS GC 4.4, I type OPTION-"u", "u" into
the little text entry popup that appears after I first enter OPTION-"u",
"u", that does enter ü (u-umlaut) into the popup text box. However,
there's something that causes the popup text box to time out, and
there's no way I could find to get the text out of the popup text box
and into the AccountName box, not even using copy-paste before the timeout.
