Yes, I see your point. HTML entities would probably help. This is 
especially important for our english speaking friends, who probably 
don't care about content-encoding, and also do not see, how there 
"default" buttons look like in other languages. The same issue by the 
way with the sizing of the menu buttons top right. If the local 
representation of given menu point enlarges the button, than the button 
may overlay others...
