Hi Ad,

I guess it is a standard procedure to have Short-URL supporting
multibyte characters when using MediaWiki. Using this feature without
having to do a backflip in some environments will be nice. Starting with
MW 1.26+ there are issues and I currently do not know how I should do my
backflip.

Cheers Karsten

PS See ya!
