Acknowledging that this is a problem, I’m still dropping the priority to P3. Reason being that the rest of Bazel doesn’t work well with non-ASCII paths anyway (labels for example don’t support non-ASCII paths), and the Windows team doesn’t have capacity to fix the rest of Bazel. I’m sad to say that I don’t realistically see fixing this any time in the next few months.
